Abstract:

The stability of antihypertensive peptides from egg white protein to chemicals was evaluated by Plackett-Burman design and its stability in mimic gastrointestinal environment was also investigated by determining angiotensin converting enzyme activity. Results indicated that pH, temperature, light illumination, stock peptide concentration, Pasteurization treatment, ultrasonic treatment and magnesium ions had no significant effect on the stability of antihypertensive peptides. However, the stability of antihypertensive peptides was sensitive to pepsin and trypsin. The activity of antihypertensive peptides decreased to 13.0 % and 4.0 % from 46.0 %.

Key words: egg white protein, peptide, stability, angiotensin converting enzyme
