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.

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.

This study investigated the ACE-inhibitory effect of yogurt beverage fortified with hydrolysates as well as the suitability of hydrolysates as a nutraceutical additive to yogurt beverage. Three whey protein hydrolysates hydrolyzed by alcalase, protamex, and trypsin were each added to yogurt beverage at concentrations of 1.25, 2.5, and 5 mg/mL. Yogurt beverage fortified with 2.5 mg/mL of hydrolysates had 61-69% ACE-inhibitory activity, whereas yogurt beverage fortified with 5 mg/mL of hydrolysates showed 74% ACE-inhibitory activity. There were no significant differences in ACE-inhibitory activity between the alcalase or protamex hydrolysates during storage; however, trypsin hydrolysate exhibited significant differences. On the other hand, physicochemical characteristics such as pH (3.47-3.77), titratable acidity (0.81-0.84%), colority, viable cell count, and sensory qualities were not significantly different among the tested yogurt beverage samples during storage. These results showed that yogurt beverage fortified with whey protein hydrolysates maintained antihypertensive activity and underwent no unfavorable changes in physicochemical characteristics regardless of enzyme type.

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)

This study was aimed to investigate the contents of flavonoids and the biological activity of fermented beverage of medical plants, DeulBit (DB). 50 g of Cassia semen (Cassia tora L.), 50 g of Omija (Schisandra chinensis Baillon.), 50 g of Gugija (Lycium chinense Mill), 50g of Menthae herba, 75 g of Chrysanthemum indicum Linne, 25 g of Dioscorea batatas, 5 g of Lindera obtusiloba Blume, 150 g of Polygonatum odoratum, 25 g of Glycyrrhiza uralensis, 25 g of Acanthopanacis cortex, 100 g of green tea (Camellia sinensis), and 100 g of Laminaria japonica was fermented with sucrose ($50.0{\sim}60.0^{\circ}Brix$.) and 0.5% of deep sea water in 10 L of distilled water for six months at room temperature. Total flavonoids contents of DB was calculated to $3.4{\pm}0.5\;{\mu}g/g$ and antioxidative activity of DB was measured by using DPPH radical scavenging and SOD-like activity. DPPH radical scavenging and SOD-like activity of DB was 96% and 29% at 100% of DB, respectively. In addition, DB indicated about 88% and 66% of the xanthine oxidase and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitory activities at 1% and 10% of DB, respectively and showed fibrinolytic activity. Nitric oxide (NO) synthesis was increased to 15 times by addition of DB. In addition, NO productions of the macrophages RAW264.7 cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were reduced to 40.4% by addition of DB. These results suggested that DB is significant role for antioxidative and fibrinolytic activity, and have the strong xanthine oxidase and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitory activities.

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.
