Abstract
Phytochemical screening and Antimicrobial activity of the leaves of Memecylon umbellatum burm. F.Subban Murugesan, Annamalai Pannerselvam, Arumugame Chanemougame Tangavelou
Highlights
Preparation of protein hydrolysates by using enzyme digestion is an important research area of current times
The papain-digested protein hydrolysate showed maximum 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity about 73%, 2, 2'-azino-bis
Nnanna and Wu (2006) stated that the enzyme-digested protein leads to the release of peptides and amino acids, they were called as protein hydrolysate
Summary
Preparation of protein hydrolysates by using enzyme digestion is an important research area of current times. We hydrolyzed C. bistrialis protein extract to identify peptides exhibiting the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities. The tissues of the land snail C. bistrialis were homogenized and digested with three different enzymes: papain, trypsin, and pepsin.
