Abstract

ABSTRACTThe kinetic laws of enzyme hydrolysis of waste products (heads, fins, bones, and muscle tissue) of the Atlantic cod Gadus morhua have been investigated. An enzyme specimen hepatopancreatine was used for the hydrolysis reaction (proteolysis). A kinetic model describing the mechanism of enzyme hydrolysis of fish proteins as a second-order reaction was developed. The proteolysis model was based on the existence of easily hydrolysed and hydrolysis-resistant protein fractions. Autolysis of the enzyme was also taken into consideration. In the context of the developed kinetic model, the second-order rate constants of the intermediate stages of proteolysis were calculated.
