Previous studies have shown the anticlotting effect of papain on slaughter‐house blood to be due to its proteolytic activity on fibrin. This has suggested its possible use in a protein recovery process. Blood proteolysate has been obtained using microbial proteases or papain; the haemolysis of the cells was then effected and the haem extracted with acidified acetone to decolourise the product.
