Abstract:

Characteristics of casein hydrolysate and casein hydrolysate-zinc complex were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and UV-visible absorption spectrum. Results showed that casein hydrolysate chelated with zinc ion to form complex. Comparative study on zinc-releasing amount in casein hydrolysate-zinc complex and ZnSO4·7H2O digestion in vitro exhibited that zinc digestibility of the complex was significantly better than that of ZnSO4·7H2O.

Key words: casein hydrolysate-zinc complex, infrared spectroscopy, UV-visible absorption spectrum, digestion in vitro
