Abstract
Enzymatic digests of whey protein concentrates were prepared using animal, bacterial and fungal proteases, and evaluated for antihypertensive activities. The highest ACE-inhibitory activity was obtained with the purified peptide β-1g (f142–148) obtained by chemical synthesis, for which an ICvalue of 0.04 mg powder.mlwas found. The hydrolysates derived from BiPRO™ whey protein isolate and β-1g both gave higher antihypertensive activities (ICvalues of 0.29 to 0.90 mg powder.ml) than the other hydrolysates tested (ICvalues of 0.96 and 1.30 mg powder.ml). The recovered hydrolysate can be used to treat hypertension in mammals such as humans and domestic pets such as dogs and cats.
