Role of Serratiopeptidase in Enzyme Therapy

Enzymes are essential for each and every reaction in a living organism. They are necessary for adequate functioning of our whole metabolism. Enzymes often provide a means of monitoring a patients response to therapy. Therapeutic use of natural enzyme is known as Enzyme therapy. They have even become one of the most innovative and expanding drug groups, and systemic therapy with proteolytic enzymes has become an important method of treatment in natural medicine. Serratiopeptidase is an enzyme derived from bacteria Enterobacteria serratia isolated from intestine of silkworms. Serratiopeptidas is used as an anti-inflammatory medicine. The activities of Serratiopeptidase is seen in this review. Serratiopeptidase has revealed new and more interesing applications in the field of pain management and transferance of antibiotics.
