Morphologically different 18 strains were isolated and examined for their abilities to inhibit ACE. Those strains were cultured in the medium containing 10% of soybean extract at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 48hr or fermented with boiled soybean at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 60 days. The concentration of inhibitors to inhibit 50% of ACE activity, $IC_{50}$ was measured on the culture broth of each strain and also on the hot-water extract from 20, 40 and 60 day fermented Doenjang by each strain. As a result, SCB-3 which is isolated from Meju showed the highest ACE inhibitoryactivity on the cultured broth and 40 day matured Doenjang. Then, $IC_{50}$ of SCB-3 was 0.02 mg/ml and 0.26mg/ml respectively. SCB-3 was identified as a Bacillus subtilis based upon its morphological, biochemical and physiological properties. Changes in general components and ACE inhibitory activity of Doenjang fermented by SCB-3 were examined during 90 days. Total acidity of Doenjang was increased from 1.39% to 1.66% and pH was decreased from 6.02 to 5.79 after 90 days fermentation. Total sugar contents were decreased from 16.4% to 15.1% and reducing sugar contents was also decreased from 2.45% to 1.62%. Total nitrogen contents were nearly not changed, but amino nitrogen contents were drastically increased from 196mg% to 541mg%. The numbers of total microorganism were increased to 1.1$\times$$10^{8}$ cells/g after 45 days. Protease activity was increased to 622.1U/g after 75 days. The highest ACE inhibitory activity was shown in 60 day fermented Doenjang and $IC_{50}$ of the hot-water extract was 0.31mg/ml.

The objectives of this study was to compare the probiotic characteristics of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) for their ability to assimilate cholesterol, production of bacteriocin, inhibition of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE), and viability under artificial gastrointestinal fluids. Among tested lactic acid bacteria, L167 strain exhibited the highest ACE inhibitory activity (58.75%). The production of ACE inhibitory peptide derived from fermented milk by L167 strain started at the beginning of stationary phase with maximum activity occurring late of the stationary phase. The highest ACE inhibitory activity was observed at 20 h in 10% skim milk medium. L155 strain exhibited cholesterol assimilation activity compared with probiotic strains such as Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 43121. With addition of bacteriocin culture, viable cells of Staphylococcus aureus in fermented sausage were slightly decreased during storage. Among selected strains of LAB, 3 strains weve identified as L. plantarum (L155, L165, L167), and two strains were identified as Pediococcus damnosus (L12) and L. paracasei ssp. paracasei (P113) by use of API carbohydrate fermentation pattern and physiological tests.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidative activities of Crab meat analogue prepared with protein hydrolysates obtained from mechanically deboned chicken meat (MDCM) from spent laying hens. 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl hydrate (DPPH) radical-scavenging activity was increased by adding MDCM hydrolysates during storage, and activity correlated with the concentration of DPPH added up to 6 weeks of storage. Hydroxyl radical-scavenging activity was increased in all analogues containing MDCM hydrolysates. At 0 days of storage, angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory activity was increased by the addition of MDCM hydrolysates. Activity did not correlate after 6 weeks of storage, in which ACE-inhibitory activity was increased with low concentrations of MDCM hydrolysates, but no ACE-inhibitory activity was observed at higher concentrations. The liver-protecting activity of crab meat analogue was shown to be around 60% of the positive control; however, it was not significantly different among the samples during storage. These results support the use of MDCM as a source of health-promoting constituents in crab meat analogue.

In this study, we evaluated the bioactivities of methanol extract and its solvent fractions of Sonchus asper (L.) Hill. The EtOAc fraction of S. asper exhibited more strong antioxidant activity than other extracts as evidenced by the strongest 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity with a $EC_{50}$ value at $33.55\;{\mu}g/mL$ and reducing power, the total polyphenol (180.71 mg GAE/g) and flavonoid contents (145.86 mg QE/g) of S. asper extract were higher than other extracts. The EtOAc fraction of the S. asper also showed 47.38% mushroom tyrosinase inhibition activity, 56.22% ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition and 46.58% ${\alpha}$-amylase inhibition ratio at 1 mg/mL. Both methylene chloride and EtOAc fractions of methanol extract of S. asper effectively reduced of the 86.34% and 62.03% angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) activity at 2 mg/mL, respectively. These findings suggest that the EtOAc fraction of the S. asper could be a potential antioxidant in food additive, medicinal, and industry product.

In this study, angiotensin-I-converting enzyme inhibitory (ACEI) activity was evaluated in fermented goat milk fermented by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from fermented foods and breast milk. Furthermore, the potential for ACEI peptides was identified in fermented goat milk with the highest ACEI activity. The proteolytic specificity of LAB was also evaluated. The 2% isolate was inoculated into reconstituted goat milk (11%, w/v), then incubated at 37℃ until pH 4.6 was reached. The supernatant produced by centrifugation was analyzed for ACEI activity and total peptide. Viable cell counts of LAB and titratable acidity were also evaluated after fermentation. Peptide identification was carried out using nano liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and potential as an ACEI peptide was carried out based on a literature review. The result revealed that ACEI activity was produced in all samples (20.44%-60.33%). Fermented goat milk of Lc. lactis ssp. lactis BD17 produced the highest ACEI activity (60.33%; IC₅₀ 0.297±0.10 mg/mL) after 48 h incubation, viable cell counts >8 Log CFU/mL, and peptide content of 4.037±0.27/mL. A total of 261 peptides were released, predominantly derived from casein (93%). The proteolytic specificity of Lc. lactis ssp. lactis BD17 through cleavage on the amino acid tyrosine, leucine, glutamic acid, and proline. A total of 21 peptides were identified as ACEI peptides. This study showed that one of the isolates from fermented food, namely Lc. lactis ssp. lactis BD17, has the potential as a starter culture for the production of fermented goat milk which has functional properties as a source of antihypertensive peptides.

We investigated the changes in antioxidant and angiotensin converting enzyme I (ACE) inhibitory activity in different parts of 'Ilpum' (Oryza sativa L.) rough rice before and after germination. Rough rice, either before or after germination, were separated into hull, brown rice, or sprout, and then extracted with distilled water and 70% ethanol. After germination, the total polyphenol contents of the distilled water extract of the brown rice was higher than before germination (5.84 and 1.67 mg/g, respectively). The DPPH radical scavenging activity on the unseparated rough rice ethanol extract increased from 22.95% before germination to 31.32% after germination, but it decreased in both the hull and brown rice extracts. The ABTS radical scavenging activity was highest in the sprout extract with a value of 4.41 mg AA eq/g. The reducing power of the brown rice ethanol extract increased from 0.32 before germination to 0.45 after germination. The ACE inhibitory activity of the in hull ethanol extract increased after germination. These results indicate that antioxidant capacity increases in the hull and sprout after germination could be considered having significant health benefits.

Fish scales have potential in functional food preparation due to their antioxidant and antihypertensive properties. We investigated the angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity of Tilapia mossambica scale extracts. Hydrolysates of tilapia scales were prepared by enzymatic extraction using five proteases (${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin, Alcalase, Kojizyme, Protamex and trypsin) after scales were treated with hot water for 3 hr. Scale enzymatic hydrolysates prepared using both hot water and enzyme treatments exhibited elevated hydrolysis (about 25%-55%) compared to only enzyme treatment (about 15%-45%). Enzymatic hydrolysates (1 mg/mL) prepared by both hot water and enzyme treatments also showed significantly increased ACE inhibitory activities from about 20%-75%. The pattern of ACE inhibitory activities was similar to the degree of hydrolysis. Alcalase and ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin hydrolysates displayed the highest ACE inhibitory activities ($IC_{50}$ = 0.83 mg/mL and 0.68 mg/mL, respectively). In addition, the ACE inhibitory effects of $IC_{50}$-chymotrypsin hydrolysates increased with decreasing molecular weight (5 kDa>, 10 kDa> and 30 kDa>), with the 5 kDa> fraction displaying the highest ACE inhibitory activity (about 89.9% and $IC_{50}$ = 0.1 mg/mL). We suggest that the peptide compounds of enzymatic hydrolysates prepared from tilapia scale enhances ACE inhibitory activity and might be useful as an antihypertensive material.

Angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) in renin-angiotensin system is a cause of essential hypertension, which covers most hypertension, one of the major adult diseases. Thus, the inhibition of ACE would be indispensable for the prevention and cure of hypertension. Therefore, a lot of studies on the ACE inhibitor have been conducted. Peptides from the protein hydrolysate have been reported as an remarkable inhibitor. Especially, various ACE inhibitory peptides were isolated and identified from marine products for their utilization as value added products. (omitted)
