Protein hydrolysates were prepared from defatted engraved catfish roe using alcalase enzyme by a two-stage serial hydrolysis process. The soluble hydrolysate formed after first stage of hydrolysis was removed (RH-1) and fresh enzyme was added at the same concentration to achieve further hydrolysis (RH-2). Further, compositional, surface-active and antioxidant properties of both hydrolysates were compared. The SDS-PAGE profile showed two distinct bands for RH-1, whereas no bands were visible for RH-2. On the other hand, gel filtration chromatography of the hydrolysates indicated 3-4 distinct fractions. Both the hydrolysates showed similar foam forming abilities, however, RH-1 exhibited poor foam stability. Emulsion properties of RH-1 were superior to that of RH-2. The major fractions eluted through gel filtration column were screened for antioxidant properties. Higher DPPH radical scavenging and metal chelating properties were observed for RH-1 second fragment, whereas FRAP and Fe(2+) reducing power was highest for second fragment of RH-2.

Simulating meat flavor via Maillard reaction model systems that contain a mixture of amino acids and reducing sugars is an effective approach to understanding the reaction mechanism of the flavor precursors. Notably, animal resources such as fish, beef, chicken, pork hydrolysates, and fats are excellent precursors in promoting favorable meaty and roasted flavors and umami tastes of Maillard reaction products. The experimental conditions and related factors of the model systems for sensory enhancements, debittering, and off-flavor reduction with meat and by-products are summarized in this review.

The insolubility of eggshell membrane (ESM) limits it application. This study utilized a green process subcritical water (SW), to prepare soluble ESM and compared it with acid hydrolysis. The effect of SW temperature on the yields of total protein, free amino acids, and glycosaminoglycan in the hydrolysate was investigated.

A simple analytical workflow is described for gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric (GC-MS)-based chiral profiling of secondary amino acids (AAs) in biological matrices. The sample preparation is carried out directly in aqueous biological sample extracts and involves in situ heptafluorobutyl chloroformate (HFBCF) derivatization-liquid-liquid microextraction of nonpolar products into hexane phase followed by subsequent formation of the corresponding methylamides from the HFB esters by direct treatment with methylamine reagent solution. The (O, N) HFB-butoxycarbonyl-methylamide AA products (HFBOC-MA) are separated on a Chirasil-L-Val capillary column and quantitatively measured by GC-MS operated in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode.
