Abstract:

Double enzyme hydrolysis was used to prepare peptides from corn gluten meal. In order to maximize degree of hydrolysis (DH), crucial hydrolysis parameters were optimized. Results showed that a maximum DH of 80.97% was obtained by optimized sequential hydrolysis for 1.5 h using protease alkaline at 55 ℃ and pH 8.5 with 5 g/100mL substrate concentration and 4% enzyme dose followed by 1.5 h using papain at pH 7.5 with 3.5% enzyme dose, which was significantly higher that obtained by single enzyme hydrolysis.

Key words: alkaline protease, papain, double enzyme hydrolysis, corn peptides, hydrolysis conditions
