Abstract:

Squid liver as a byproduct of squid processing was processed into protein. The protein was enzymatically hydrolyzed and ACE inhibitory peptides were obtained from the hydrolysate after ultrafiltration and Sephadex G-50 fractionation. Pepsin was found optimal for the hydrolysis of squid liver protein. The optimal pepsin hydrolysis conditions for both higher degree of hydrolysis and ACE inhibitory ratio were as follows: substrate concentration 2.5%; enzyme/substrate ratio 2%; and temperature 36 ℃ for a hydrolysis duration of 22 h. The smaller molecular weight fractions after ultrafiltration through a membrane with 20 kD molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) were fractionized on Sephadex G-50 column, resulting in five elution peaks. Among them, fraction (peak) B presented the highest ACE inhibitory activity, with an IC50 of 1.80 mg/mL.

Key words: squid liver protein, hydrolysate, ACE inhibitory peptides
