Antioxidant and Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitory Activities of Protein Hydrolysates Prepared from Threadfin Bream (Nemipterus spp.) Surimi By-products

摘要

Solid wastes from threadfin bream (Nemipterus spp.) surimi production composed of head and frame were hydrolyzed by various commercial proteases (Alcalase, Flavourzyme, Neutrase, Protamex, papain, and pepsin) to produce protein hydrolysates with bioactive properties. An Alcalase-hydrolyzed sample at 24.4% degree of hydrolysis (DH) displayed the highest antioxidant activity based on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay, and potassium ferricyanide method. In addition, it showed an inhibitory activity toward angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) of 25.5%. Antioxidant activity of threadfin bream by-product hydrolysates increased with hydrolysis time and reached the highest DPPH activity after 6 h, while that hydrolyzed for 3 h showed the highest reducing power based on FRAP and potassium ferricyanide assays. In addition, ACE inhibitory activity was found to be at an optimum after 3 h of hydrolysis. The hydrolysates (1 mg/mL) also retarded oxidation of a linoleic acid emulsion system to a similar extent as 0.1 mg/mL 3-tert-butyl-4-hydroxy anisole (BHA), indicating a potential use in the food system. Protein hydrolysates from threadfin bream surimi by-products could be tailor-made to possess both antioxidant and ACE inhibitory activity through controlling DH of Alcalase-catalyzed reactions.View full textDownload full textKeywordsprotein hydrolysates, threadfin bream by-product, ACE inhibition, antioxidant activityRelated var addthis_config = { ui_cobrand: "Taylor & Francis Online", services_compact: "citeulike,netvibes,twitter,technorati,delicious,linkedin,facebook,stumbleupon,digg,google,more", pubid: "ra-4dff56cd6bb1830b" }; Add to shortlist Link Permalink http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/10498850.2011.594935
