Physico-chemical properties, antioxidant activities and antihypertensive effects of walnut protein and its hydrolysate

BACKGROUND: Some food proteins hydrolysates are found to possess multiple health effects. In this study, walnut protein (WP) was enzymatically hydrolysed by alcalase and trypsin under optimal conditions. The physico-chemical properties, antioxidant and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities of WP, alcalase-generated walnut protein hydrolysate (AWPH) and trypsin-generated walnut protein hydrolysate (TWPH) were comparatively studied. Stability […]
