The aim of the present study was to comparatively investigate the relative phytochemical profiles (phenolic content, organic and amino acids, free sugars, and other metabolites using metabolomics approach), and bioactive potentials of young (YS) and mature soybean (MS) upon in vitro simulated gastrointestinal digestion (SGID). Cumulatively, a total of 198 metabolites were identified in MS and YS, 119 metabolites in undigested YS, and a total of 136 metabolites in undigested MS, which further increased to 156 and 152 in YS and MS upon SGID, respectively. Gastric digesta of both YS and MS exhibited higher inhibitory properties towards α-amylase and DPP-IV enzymes than their intestinal digesta.

Higher proteins degradation levels were recorded with Bromelain compared to Flavourzyme and Alcalase, and upon hydrolysis, improved PL and C-Ease inhibition performances were displayed compared to unhydrolyzed proteins. Afterwards, six PHs with potent anti-lipidemic activities were selected for sequencing using LC-MS QTOF and molecular binding studies.

The three camel milk probiotic strains Lb.
