Enzymatically hydrolyzed vegetable protein (eHVP) was produced from soy protein using proteases, and the physicochemical properties were examined. Soy protein hydrolysate of 6% protein and 50% degree of hydrolysis was useful for the base of savory ingredients. The Maillard-reacted and flavoring compound-added hydrolysate had improved flavor. It was for enzymatically hydrolyzed soy sauces and dehydrated seasonings. ISP hydrolysate of low molecular weight $(MW{\sim}250)$ and high protein content (85%) was suitable for special uses such as infant diets, sports nutrition, and medical diets. The eHVP gave no limitation of dosage in the formulation as a flavor enhancer. The byproduct of protein hydrolysis was found to have high content of fiber (21%) and to have potential for the use as dietary fiber or bulking agents.

Soy protein was hydrolyzed by 5 different pretenses and determinated antimicrobial activity of each hydrolysate. The soy protein hydrolysate treated by pretense from Aspergillus saitoi showed the highest antimicrobial activity among the protease studied and was used for further analysis. Soy protein hydrolysate was fractionated by ultrafiltration for M.W. 10,000,3,000 and 1,000. The M.W 1,000∼3,000 showed the highest antimicrobial activity. The minimum inhibition concentrations of obtained fraction were 0.5∼0.8 mg/mL for gram positive and negative microbials, and its activity was even observed after heating at 121$^{\circ}C$ for 10 min, suggesting that hydrolyzed protein having antimicrobial activity is quite heat-stable. Reverse-phase HPLC was further applied to separate the fraction and 8 peaks were found. Each 8 peaks were separated and pooled and measured antimicrobial activity. Among them, retention time of peak at 16.02 min showed the prominent antimicrobial activity.

Enzymatically hydrolyzed soy sauce(eHSS) was prepared by the treatment of defatted soy flake using two types of proteases, followed by maillard reaction and formulation with some ingredients. The eHSS was mixed with fermented soy sauce(FSS) to make enzymatically hydrolyzed mixed soy sauce(eHMSS). The properties and sensory characteristics were evaluated and compared with commercially available soy sauces. The control of salt and total nitrogen contents in eHSS and eHMSS was easy, and the production of soy sauce of low salt and high protein was possible. However, the free amino acid content of eHSS was lower than FSS. due to lower degree of hydrolysis. In sensory evaluation, the eHSS have no loss taste and overall acceptance than FSS. Consequently, the eHSS and eHMSS have the potential for use with FSS to produce high quality soy sauce of low salt and high protein contents.

Most medium formulations for improving culture of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN) based on protein sources have used enriched media like animal feed such as dried egg yolk, lactalbumin, and liver extract, among other ingredients. Most results, however, showed unstable yields and longer production time. Many of the results do not show the detailed parameters of fermentation. Soy flour, cotton seed flour, corn gluten meal, casein powder, soytone, peptone, casein hydrolysates, and lactalbumin hydrolysate as protein sources were tested to determine the source to support optimal symbiotic bacteria and nematode growth. The protein hydrolysates selected did not improve bacterial cell mass compared with the yeast extract control, but soy flour was the best, showing 75.1% recovery and producing more bacterial cell number ($1.4{\times}10^9$/ml) than all other sources. The highest yield ($1.85{\times}10^5$ IJs/ml), yield coefficient ($1.67{\times}10^6$ IJs/g medium), and productivity ($1.32{\times}10^7$ IJs/l/day) were also achieved at enriched medium with soybean protein.

In order to produce functional soy hydrolysates, we investigated the characteristics of soy hydrolysates prepared with 4 kinds of commercial proteases. The yield was high in protease(B), in which 43.2% soy flour and 61.6% SPI were obtained. The solubility and the contents of total phenolic compound were greatly increased by the treatment of protease(B) along with protease(C). The calcium intolerance was improved after the protease(B) treatment in soy flour or Soybean Protein isolate (SPI). Consideration for the physicochemical characteristics including yield, protease(B) has potential application for the production of soy hydrolysates. After the protease treatment, the beany flavor of soy flour became weak and the bitter taste was strong in both soy flour and SPI. However, there was no difference of beany flavor and bitter taste among delete protease hydrolysates. Nevertheless, further modifications and improvements to the sensory characteristics would be required for the development of a range of products with the hydrolysate.

This study was aimed to investigate whether soy protein hydrolysates had beneficial effects on serum and tissue lipid contents and appetite-related hormones as compared with intact soy protein. Four-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed AIN-93M diet containing high fat (18% w/w) with low protein (10% w/w). After four weeks, the rats were divided into four groups (n = 8/group) and fed experimental diets with different nitrogen sources and levels, respectively; 10% soy protein isolate (10SPI), 25% soy protein isolate (25SPI), 25% soy protein hydrolysates (25SPH) and 25% soy macro-peptide fractions (25SPP, MW $\geq$ 10,000) for six weeks. Weight gain was significantly higher in 25% nitrogen sources-fed groups than in 10% group (10SPI). In 25SPP, perirenal fat mass and serum total lipid were significantly lower than in other groups. As for appetite-related hormones, serum ghrelin concentration was not shown to be different among groups but leptin concentration was significantly decreased in 25SPP. It can be concluded that soy macro-peptide fractions as compared with intact soy protein may have beneficial effects on reducing fat mass and serum lipid.

A soy protein hydrolysate was found to inhibit rat platelet aggregation induced by ADP, an aggregating agent. To find out its principal antiplatelet peptide(s), the soy protein hydrolysate was separated successively by gel filtration chromatography, revere-phase HPLC, and cation exchange HPLC. During the course of separation, we observed that most fractions had antiplatelet effects, which suggests that most peptides have some degree of antiplatelet effect. Following the inhibitory fractions, we purified and identified two new peptides, SSGE and DEE, by LC-electrospray ionization MS and peptide equencing. Both peptides were highly hydrophilic. The concentrations to obtain 50% inhibition ($IC_50$) of the aggregation intensity were approximately $\458muM$ and $\485muM$, respectively, for SSGE and DEE.

The diagnosis and treatment of cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) is still a challenge. A systematic literature search was performed using Embase, Medline, The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Clinical Trials for the diagnosis and treatment of cow's milk allergy (CMA). Since none of the symptoms of CMPA is specific and since there is no sensitive diagnostic test (except a challenge test), the diagnosis of CMPA remains difficult. A "symptom-based score" is useful in children with symptoms involving different organ systems. The recommended dietary treatment is an extensive cow milk based hydrolysate. Amino acid based formula is recommended in the most severe cases. However, soy infant formula and hydrolysates from other protein sources (rice) are gaining popularity, as they taste better and are cheaper than the extensive cow's milk based hydrolysates. Recent meta-analyses confirmed the safety of soy and estimate that not more than 10-15% of CMPA-infants become allergic to soy. An accurate diagnosis of CMA is still difficult. The revival of soy and the development of rice hydrolysates challenge the extensive cow's milk based extensive hydrolysates as first option and amino acid formula.

Infant formula is classified into standard cow's milk-based and special formulas. This review aimed at summarizing the types of special milk formulas currently sold in Korea, and the appropriate indications for the use of these formulas; lactose free formula, soy-based formula, protein hydrolysate formula, amino acid-based formula, preterm formula, medium chain triglyceride formula, low-phosphorus formula, protein-energy-enriched formula, and formulas for inborn errors of metabolism.
