In order to establish the enzymatic hydrolysis system improving of taste and flavor in the preparation of soy protein hydrolysates using the enzymes with excellent hydrolytic ability and different hydrolysis pattern of soy protein, Degree of hydrolysis(DH) and surface hydrophobicity under the optimal conditions of enzyme reaction, hydrolysis patterns by the SDS electrophoresis and sensory evaluation of soy protein hydrolysates by enzyme reactions were investigated. Four enzyme reactions were highly activated at pH 7.0, 45$^{\circ}C$ under the optimal conditions. As result of changes on the pattern of soy-protein hydrolysates by SDS-electrophoresis, high molecular peptides of hydrolysates by No. 5(Mucor circinelloides M5) and No. 16(Bacillus megaterium B16) enzymes were slowly decrease and 66KD band of these were remained after 3hours reaction. Production of low molecular peptides of hydrolysates by No. 4(Aspergillus oryzae M4) and No. 95(Bacillus subtilis YG 95) enzymes were remarkably detected during the proceeding reactions. As results of HPLC analysis, low molecular peptides of 15∼70KD were mainly appeared during the proceeding enzyme reactions. And, the more DH was increased, the more SDS-surface hydrophobicity was decreased. Hydrolysates by No. 4 enzyme was not only the highest DH of all hydrolysates, but the strongest bitter taste in a sensory evaluation. Sweat taste among the hydrolysates showed little difference. But, when combinative enzymes were treated, combinative enzyme of No. 4(Aspergillus oryzae M4)and No. 16(Bacillus megaterium B16) showed the strongest sweat taste. In conclusion, we assumed that it will be possible to prepare the hydrolysates having functionality when soy-protein were hydrolyzed by these specific enzymes.

Bee venom (Apis mellifera) phospholipase $A_2$ solubilized in reversed micelles containing small amount of water stabilized by surfactant could catalyze the hydrolysis of dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC). A sensitive and simple high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) methodology of phospholipase $A_2$ assay for the hydrolysis of DPPC was developed. Kinetic analysis of the phospholipase $A_2$-catalyzed reaction was found to be possible in reversed micelles. Among the surfactants and organic solvents tested, aerosol-OT and isooctane were most effective for the hydrolysis of DPPC in reversed micelles. Optimal temperature, optimal pH, $K_{m,app.},\;V_{max.,app.}$ and activation energy were determined to be $35{\sim}40^{\circ}C$, 7.0, 8.73 mM, 2.83 units/㎎ protein and 12.31 kcal/mole, respectively. The hydrolysis activity was dependent on water content and maximum activity was obtained at R value (=[water]/[aerosol-OT]) of 10.0.

The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition effect of soybean protein isolate hydrolysate was studied using protease. Soybean protein isolate was hydrolysed by seven enzymes (Alcalase 2.4 L, Flavourzyme 500 MG, GC 106, Multifect Neutral, Neutrase 0.8 L, Papain 30,000 and Protamex), enzyme concentrations (0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5%), at various hydrolysis times (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hr) and suspension concentrations (1, 5, 7, 10 and 15%). Absorbance at 280 nm, brix and ACE inhibitory activity of soybean protein isolate hydrolysates were investigated. Absorbance at 280 nm and brix of Alcalase 2.4 L treatment were higher than other enzyme treatments. The optimum condition of hydrolysis was Alcalase 2.4 L, 1% enzyme concentration, 5% suspension concentration for 4 hr. $IC_{50}$ value of ACE inhibitory activity of soybean protein isolate hydrolysate was $79.94 {\mu}g/mL$. These results suggest that soybean isolate protein hydrolysate from Alcalase 2.4 L may be of benefit for developing antihypertensive therapeutics.

This study was carried out to produce antimicrobial peptides from casein using various proteases. To examine whether the hydrolysis of casein would produce antimicrobial substance and the application as natural antimicrobial material, casein was hydrolyzed by five different proteases. The casein hydrolysate was fractionated with regenerated membrane filter (molecular weight cut-off 30,000 10,000 and 3,000) and antimicrobial activity was measured for each fraction. Antimicrobial activity appeared great in the fraction below 3,000 molecular weight The fraction was re-fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography and substance of main peak (retention time: 13.2 min) collected was used as a sample to measure antimicrobial activity. Among the casein hydrolysates produced by protease, antimicrobial activity was observed the greatest in hydrolysate treated with Aspergillus oryzae protease. The minimum inhibition concentrations of the Asp. oryzae protease hydrolysate were 1.0-1.5 mg/mL. This hydrolysate was a heat stable peptide since antimicrobial activity was maintained after treating with heat for 20 min at $121^{\circ}C$.

For preparation of high-quality salted mackerel using enzymatic extracts from Ecklonia cava (EEC) to process fresh mackerel caught off Jeju Island, the optimal concentration of EEC was investigated. There were no differences in proximate composition, salinity, Escherichia coli level, pH, volatile basic nitrogen content, histamine level, or peroxide value between salted mackerel samples prepared with different concentrations of EEC. However, the antiradical properties of salted mackerel, assayed by scavenging of DPPH free radicals, hydroxyl radicals, hydrogen peroxide, and alkyl radicals, increased with increasing concentrations of EEC. The optimal concentration of EEC for preparation of high-quality salted mackerel was 2% (w/w). Salted mackerel soaked in 2% (w/w) EEC was superior to commercial salted mackerel in antiradical properties, biogenic amine content, and other relevant chemical properties.

The purpose of this study was to elucidate characteristics of hydrolysates from file-fish flesh with various proteases. File-fish flesh was chopped, homogenized with water, and hydrolysed by 8 different kinds of commercially available protease. High production of peptide was observed in bromelain and neutrase treatment. On the other hand, large amount of free amino acid was observed in esp/sav and pronase treatment. Neutrase and pancreatin hydrolysate contained large amount of 5'-GMP. Organoleptic studies showed that the bromelain, esp/sav and protease hydrolysate had strong bitter taste, while pronase and esp/sav hydrolysate had strong umami taste. From these results, pronase was found to be suitable enzyme for producing file-fish hydrolysate.

Enzymatic hydrolysis with tuna pyloric caeca crude enzyme(TPCCE) was performed to recover a protein hydrolysate from hoki frame, fish processing by-product. Optimum hydrolytic conditions were pH 10.0, temperature $50^{\circ}C$, and incubation time 12 hrs, and then the degree of hydrolysis was about 60%. The yield of the hydrolysate from hoki frame by enzymatic hydrolysis was approximately 77% on a dry weight basis. The prepared protein hydrolysates were also fractionated through a series of 30, 10, 5 and 1 kDa molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) membranes in order to investigate the effect of their functionalities according to the difference of their molecular size. As the result of studying functionalities of the hydrolysates, 1 K hydrolysate showed the highest solubility over all pHs, and 30 and 10 K hydrolysate showed more excellent emulsifying property and whippability than the other hydrolysates.
