Hydrolyzed proteins have an advantage over intact proteins in terms of their rate of digestion and absorption. The high-pressure enzymatic extraction (HPE) method has been shown to improve the quality characteristics of hydrolysates from Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis (Kolbe) larvae (PBSL). This study investigated the effects of the HPE treatment period, a key candidate factor, on the quality characteristics of PBSL HPE hydrolysates. The hydrolysates were prepared by HPE for 0, 12, 18, 24, 30, and 36 h under optimized conditions—solid:solvent ratio (1:14 [w/v]), using complex proteases (Alcalase:Flavorzyme:Bromelain = 1:1:1, 4%), treatment temperature (50oC), and pressure level (100 MPa). All quality characteristics tended to be superior with longer HPE treatment periods, most of which had the highest values at 30 h, with no significant difference or a slight decrease after that. The quality characteristics of the PBSL HPE hydrolysates were improved by 1.3-1.7 times under conditions of optimal HPE treatment period.

천연물 유래 저분자 펩타이드들은 항산화, 고혈압 완화, 면역조절, 진통완화 및 항균작용 등 생리활성이 있는 것으로 알려져 왔다. 본 연구는 연산오계육 단백질을 상업용 프로티아제(alcalase, bromelain, flavourzyme, neutrase, papain, protamex)를 이용하여 저분자 펩타이드를 생산하고 항산화 활성(DPPH 소거능, 슈퍼옥사이드 라디칼 소거능, 하이드록시 라디칼 소거능 및 금속 킬레이션 능력), 펩타이드의 구성 아미노산 및 분자량을 분석하였다. 효소반응은 효소반응기에 다진 오계육 슬러리 50 g 와 단백질 효소 2%(w/v)를 넣고 pH6 와 온도 60℃ 조건에서 2시간 반응을 하였다. 반응 후 가수분해 도(%)의 범위는 36.65±4.10%에서 70.75±5.29% 사이의 범위를 보여주었는데 protamex의 가수분해도는 46.3%로 가장 높았으며, papain hydrolysate가 70.75±5.29%로 가장 높은 값을 보여주었으며, 반면에 alcalase hydrolysate가 36.65±4.10%로 가장 낮은 값을 보여주었다. DPPH 라디칼 소거능은 bromelain 처리 저분자 펩타이드가 가장 높게 나타났고, alcalase 처리 펩타이드에서 소거능이 가장 낮게 나타났다. 슈퍼옥사이드 라디칼 소거능 역시 bromelain 처리 저분자 펩타이드가 50% 이상의 가장 높은 라디칼 소거능을 보여주었다. 하이드록시 라디칼 소거능은 약 16.73에서 69.16% 사이의 분포를 보여 주었는데 bromelain 처리 저분자 펩타이드에서 가장 높게 나타났다. Fe2+ 킬레이션 능력은 약 17.85에서 47.84% 사이의 분포를 보여 주었다. hydrolysate들의 킬레이션 능력은 사용 효소들에 상관없이 큰 차이점이 없었다. 아미노산의 분석결과 alcalase, bromelain, flavourzyme, neutrase, papain, protamex 효소 가수분해 시켰을 때 차이점을 보여 주었고 가장 많은 아미노산은 glutamic acid이었다. 효소 hydrolysate들의 분자량의 분포는 처리 효소에 따라 분자량의 분포가 다르게 나타났지만 300-2,000 Da 범위에 있었다.

Low molecular weight hydrolysates from donkey bone extracts (LHDB) was prepared with different food enzymes, and its antioxidative, elastase and collagenase inhibitory, and fibroblast cell protection effects against photoaging were evaluated. Gelatin from donkey bone was extracted three times at 121℃ for 1 h and was lyophilized. The lyophilized powder (5 g) was dissolved in 95 mL distilled water with 1% FoodPro alkaline protease (A), 1% Protease P (P), 1% Protease M (M) and a 0.3% A + 0.3% P + 0.3% M (APM) mixture and was hydrolyzed for 3 h at 45℃. After enzyme inactivation at 90℃ for 10 min, the LHDBs hydrolyzed by A, P, M, and APM were separated by centrifugal filtration and were lyophilized and marked as LHDB-A, LHDB-P, LHDB-M, LHDB-APM. The LHDB-M showed higher 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline–6- sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) than the other treatments (p<0.05). The elastase inhibition effect (37.49%) of LHDB-M were significantly higher than those of the other treatments (9.97-34.18%). The viability of human fibroblast cells (Hs68) after UVB irradiation was significantly increased by LHDB-M, indicating that it can be used as an antioxidant or as a UVB stress protector. However, further in vivo studies should precede its usage in the bioactive compound industry.

본 연구에서는 나노버블수로 재배한 새싹인삼(NB-4)과 일반수로 4개월간 재배한 새싹인삼(NA-4)의 이화학적 차이와 조사포닌 및 진세노사이드의 함량을 비교하여 나노버블수로 재배한 새싹인삼의 우수성을 확인하였다. 또한 NB-4 새싹인삼의 상업적 적용 가능성에 대한 기초자료를 확보하고자 시판 효소 3종으로 가수분해하여 이화학적 특성 및 항산화 활성을 비교 하였다. 생장 특성에서는 NB-4 새싹인삼이 NA-4 새싹인삼에 비해 길이나 굵기 면에서 더 높은 생육 증진 효과가 확인되었다. 잎과 뿌리 모두에서 회분과 조지방 함량은 시료간에 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 조사포닌 함량은 NB-4 새싹인삼에서 더 높았으며, 총 진세노사이드 함량은 NA-4가 더 높았는데 특히 잎에서의 Rb2 함량은 NB-4 새싹인삼에 더 높았다. 총 페놀화합물의 함량은 NB-4의 잎과 NA-4의 뿌리에서 유의적으로 높은 함량이었고, 플라보노이드는 잎에서만 검출되었으며, NB-4와 NA-4 간에는 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 상대적으로 조사포닌 함량이 높았던 NB-4를 viscozyme, cellulast 및 fungamyl 각각으로 가수분해 한 결과 viscozyme으로 가수분해 했을 때, pH는 가장 낮고, 산도, 환원당 함량과 총 페놀화합물의 함량은 가장 높았다. 효소 분해물의 항산화 효능을 DPPH와 ABTS 라디칼소거능으로 평가한 결과 각각 viscozyme과 fungamyl 분해물의 항산화 활성이 우수한 것으로 확인되었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 나노버블수로 재배한 새싹인삼에서 사포닌함량이 더 높으며, 효소분해물 제조시는 적용되는 효소에 따라 항산화 활성을 높일 수 있으므로 액상 추출물의 제조에는 효소의 적용이 적합한 것으로 판단된다.

Ultrafiltration를 이용하여 fractionation된 단백질 가수 분해물의 항산화 저해 능력 IC50 평가하였다. 그 결과 HDS의 최대값은 superoxide anion radical scavenging activity(IC50, 5.42 mg/ml)이고, 1 kDa의 최대값은 Fe2+ chelation ability(IC50, 1.67 mg/ml)이고, 5 kDa의 최대값은 Fe2+ chelation ability(IC50, 2.09 mg/ml)이고, 10 kDa의 최대값은 Fe2+ chelation ability(IC50, 2.61 mg/ml)이고, 50 kDa의 최대값은 Fe2+ chelation ability(IC50, 4.53 mg/ml)이 다. 그러므로 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 5 kDa를 이용하여 오계란 단백질에서 분획한 펩타이드는 항산 화 기능성 식품소재로서 활용할 가치가 높을 것으로 기대한다.

Alginate lyase from Streptomyces violaceoruber was purified by DEAE sephacel chromatography and SP sepharose chromatography. The specific activity of the purified enzyme was 14.6 units/mg protein, representing a 40.6-fold purification of the crude extract. The final preparation thus obtained showed a single band on Tricine-SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis whose molecular weight was determined to be 23.3 kDa. The polyMG block of sodium alginate was hydrolyzed by the purified alginate lyase and then separated by activated carbon column chromatography and bio gel P-2 gel filtration. The main hydrolysates were composed of hetero type M/G-oligosaccharides with the degrees of polymerization (D.P.) being 6 and 8. To investigate the effects of hetero type M/Goligosaccharides from the sodium alginate on the growth of some intestinal bacteria, cells were cultivated individually on the modified-MRS medium containing D.P. 6 and 8 M/G-oligosaccharides. B. longumgrew 4.25-fold and 6.44-fold more effectively by the treatment of D.P. 6 and 8 M/G-oligosaccharides compared with those of standard MRS medium. In addition, B. bifidumgrew 3.3-fold and 5.4-fold more effectively by the treatment of D.P. 6 and 8 M/G-oligosaccharides. In conclusion, D.P. 8 was more effective than D.P. 6 hetero M/G-oligosaccharides as regards the growth of Bifidobacteriumspp. and Lactobacillus spp. Key words: hetero M/G-oligosaccharides, Streptomyces violaceoruber

Proteolytic enzymes were screened to obtain anchovy protein hydrolysates (APH) with low-bitterness under pressurization. First, the residual proteolytic activity (%) and SDS-PAGE of commercially available food-grade protease (Alcalase® 2.4 L, FlavourzymeTM 500 MG, Neutrase®, ProtamexTM) and mixed enzyme (ME, Alcalase® : FlavourzymeTM = 1 : 5) after treatments of ambient pressure and 100 MPa at 50oC were investigated. The proteolytic activity of enzymes was still largely retained after pressure treatment. The SDS-PAGE on tested enzymes showed that the electrophoretic mobility maps (EMMs) after pressure treatment were similar to those at ambient pressure. With these results, it seemed that tested enzymes were stable at 100 MPa and 50oC. Raw anchovy hydrolyzed with various protease at 50oC under ambient pressure and 100 MPa for 1, 2, 6, 12, and 24 h. The degree of hydrolysis (DH, %) of prepared APHs at 100 MPa was increased, which suggests that the medium pressure treatment accelerates protein hydrolysis. The APH by ME exhibited the best suitable characteristics, which had a relatively higher DH (36.2±1.8- 57.5±2.8), a high content of oligopeptides with a molecular mass lower than 1,100 Da, mildly bitter taste as the bitterness value was lower than that of 0.2 g/L tea alkaloid, and the lowest contents of tryptophan. Thus, ME was selected to obtain APH with low-bitterness under pressurization.

The study investigated the effects of adding bovine plasma protein(PP) hydrolysates on the quality properties of cooked pork patties. Pork patties were prepared as follows: manufactured with pork back-fat(control); replacement of back-fat with 40% olive oil(T1), 40% olive oil and 2% PP hydrolysates(T2), and 40% olive oil and 4% PP hydrolysates(T3). The olive oil modified the fatty acid profiles of the pork patties by lowering the saturated fatty acids(SFAs) percentage. Olive oil and 4% PP hydrolysates addition reduced the level of 2-thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance(TBARS) values in pork patties, compared to the controls. Furthermore, the pork patties with added PP hydrolysates had higher pH values than the control. All samples containing olive oil and PP hydrolysates had increased levels of DPPH radical scavenging activity. In particular, added PP hydrolysates were more effective in increasing antioxidant activity than were the other treatments. Therefore, PP hydrolysates could be used as a natural antioxidative in cooked pork patties.
