Abstract The excessive use of chemical fertilizers can cause severe environmental damage. In recent decades, the application biostimulants to improve soil composition and stimulate plant growth has contributed significantly preservation. this paper, we studied production characterization an amino acid/peptide-enriched biostimulant using edible mushroom ( Agaricus bisporus ) by-products (tails n...

Hydrolysis of rice bran protein (RBP) using a physical-enzymatic combined method (ultrasound-Alcalase) was carried out. The RBP extracted an ultrasound-aided alkaline extraction and then the extract hydrolysed. Furthermore, ultrasounication used prior to Alcalase hydrolysis (pH 8.5, 10 min, 55 °C). Two variables were considered operate ultrasonication: power (50, 100 150 w) duration treatment (...

Fish protein hydrolysates were prepared from Cuttlefish (Sepia pharaonis) muscle using alcalase and protamex methods. By conducting the Cuttlefish protein hydrolysate using alcalase (CPHA), it showed higher degrees of hydrolysis, proximate composition, yield, emulsifying activity index (EAI), emulsion stability index (ESI), foaming activity index (FAI), solubility, water holding capacity (WHC) ...

This study aimed to optimize the fermentation condition of black bean using probiotic lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and evaluate characteristics antioxidant activity LAB fermented heat-treated bean. Two strains were selected by analysis resistance, bile antimicrobial activity, identified as Lactiplantibacillus plantarum CH9 SU18 16S rRNA sequencing. Both showed similar or higher resistance compare...

Alcalase is the enzyme of choice to release antihypertensive peptides from amaranth proteins, but the hydrolysis conditions have not been optimized yet. Furthermore, in vivo assays are needed to confirm such a hypotensive effect. Our aim was to optimize the hydrolysis of amaranth protein with alcalase and to test in vivo the hypotensive effect of the hydrolysates. A response surface analysis wa...

In recent years, food protein-derived hydrolysates have received considerable attention because of their numerous health benefits. Amongst the hydrolysates, those with anti-hypertensive and anti-oxidative activities are receiving special attention as both activities can play significant roles in preventing cardiovascular diseases. The present study investigated the angiotensin-I converting enzy...

Alcalase hydrolysis of liquid egg white was used to produce 5-hydroxytryptophan (HTP) under various conditions and investigate the sleep-potentiating activity of liquid egg white hydrolysate (LEH) on pentobarbital-induced sleep. Alcalase hydrolysis yielded the highest content of 5-HTP (13.50 μg/mL), while neutrase hydrolysis showed the lowest 5-HTP content (5.23 μg/mL). The liquid egg white to ...

Soybean allergy is of great concern and continues to challenge both consumer and food industry. The present study investigates the enzyme-assisted reduction in major soybean allergens in soy protein isolate using different food-grade proteases, while maintaining or improving the sensory attributes and technofunctional properties. SDS-PAGE analyses showed that hydrolysis with Alcalase, Pepsin, a...
