Digestive juices

Hey guys! Does anyone have any information about the chemical make up of the digestive juices of a venus fly trp? What is the chemical formula? Is it the same for all other carnivorous plants?
 
I've no idea what's in it, but I can tell ya that it's not the same for all carnivorous plants. It would be sort of ridiculous to think so, considering they all branched off and did their own thing.

I don´t think it would be the same as others. They might be similar, but not the same. What makes up the emzymes, I have no idea. Maybe you can research on how digestive fluids work to get an idea? ??? (Woot! 1000th post!)
