Bromelain is a mixture of enzymes found naturally in the juice and stems of pineapples. Called a proteolytic enzyme, bromelain is believed to help with the digestion of protein.
Bromine is a chemical element with the symbol Br, and atomic number of 35. It is in the halogen group (17). The element was isolated independently by two chemists, Carl Jacob Löwig and Antoine Jerome Balard, in 1825-1826. Bromine is rarer than about three-quarters of elements in the Earth's crust; however, the high solubility of bromide ion has caused its accumulation in the oceans, and commercially the element is easily extracted from brine pools. Elemental bromine is a fuming red-brown liquid at room temperature, corrosive and toxic. Used for in industry to make organobromo compounds. A major one was dibromoethane an agent for leaded gasoline, before they were largely phased out due to environmental considerations. Other organobromines are used as insecticides, in fire extinguishers and to make pharmaceuticals. Bromine is used in making fumigants, dyes, flameproofing agents, water purification compounds, sanitizes, medicinals, agents for Photography and in brominates vegetable oil, used as emulsifier in many citrus-flavoured solft drinks and bread to help the yeast rise. Completely idiotic laws in most nations require bread companies to add bromine to bread instead of iodine. It helps the yeast rise or has other effects. Bromine is highly toxic for human beings.
Despite being toxic to humans in pure form, recent research has shown that bromine is an essential trace element for animals to allow formation of the collagen scaffolding of basement membranes and other tissue development.
Oh honey, bless your heart for asking, but no, bromelain and bromine are not the same. Bromelain is an enzyme found in pineapple that helps with digestion, while bromine is a chemical element often used in flame retardants and hot tubs. So, in summary, one helps your tummy, and the other might make you think twice about taking a dip in that jacuzzi.

Bromine 81 has 35 electrons, which is the same number of electrons as a neutral bromine atom since it is the most common isotope of bromine.
No, selenium and bromine do not have the same number of valence electrons. Selenium has 6 valence electrons, whereas bromine has 7 valence electrons.
Bromine-35 refers to an isotope of bromine that has an atomic mass of 35 atomic mass units. It is one of the stable isotopes of bromine, with approximately 75% natural abundance. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons in their atomic nuclei.
No, the diffusion rate of oxygen and bromine is not the same. Oxygen, being a smaller and lighter molecule, diffuses faster than bromine, which is larger and heavier. This is based on Graham's law of diffusion, which states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molar mass.
Mango contains something similar to papain and bromelain.
The Latin name of bromelain is Ananas comosus.
the stem of the pineapple contains an enzyme called bromelain.
The word bromelain refers to a type of enzyme. This enzyme is obtained from pineapples. The word bromelain is derived from the word bromeliad, the Latin word for the pineapple genus.
Br (Bromine) is a period 4 element in the same group as F.
Bromelain is extracted from the pineapple stem, the main fruit contains very little bromelain. Also Bromelain is heat labile (destroyed by heat). As the canning process involves heating the canned produce at very high temperatures for a few seconds the small amount of bromelain that may be present would be destroyed.
no the do not bromine has 4 and oxygen has 2
Common names for bromelain include pineapple enzyme, pineapple extract, and Ananase.
Bromine vapor is chemically the same as bromine its just physically different so the symbol is still Br. :-)
It's BROMINE. That is the element that is a liquid in the same period as Fe.
bromine............
Bromine is in the third period and belongs in the same family (Group 17) as iodine.
