Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the antioxidative properties of walnut-derived pentapeptides, specifically PW5, analyzing its free radical scavenging activity using NMR spectroscopy.
- PW5, composed of Proline-Proline-Lysine-Asparagine-Tryptophan, showed significant antioxidant activity with a lower IC value than glutathione, indicating its effectiveness.
- The research highlights the crucial role of the tryptophan residue in PW5's antioxidant capacity, laying groundwork for understanding how food-derived peptides combat oxidative stress.
