Abstract
ABSTRACT The objectives of this study were to characterize physicochemical properties of two collagens, tilapia skin (TS) and hybrid catfish skin (HS). Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides from extracted TS and HS collagen using pepsin were also determined. HS collagen had a higher amount of imino acid than TS collagen, while TS contained higher amounts of tyrosine (Tyr) and lysine (Lys). Fourier-transform infrared spectra of both collagens showed predominant helix structure. The HS collagen hydrolysate prepared by pepsin was fractionated using sequential ultrafiltration membranes, and the fraction with molecular weight (MW) <5 kDa showed the highest ACE inhibitory activity (p < .05). After cation exchange and two steps size exclusion chromatography, peptides showed ACE inhibitory activity of 72.06%. This study revealed that ACE inhibitory peptides derived from HS collagen could be developed as a functional food with potential antihypertensive properties.
