Germination and enzymatic hydrolysis are biological processes with well-recognized positive effects on phenolic composition and antioxidant potential. This study aimed to apply those processes to white (Sinapsis alba) and black (Brassica nigra) mustard grains and to analyze the influences on the total phenolic content (TPC); phenolic and peptide profile determined by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS); antioxidant potential (DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assays); and cytotoxicity against Caco-2, a human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line. Enzyme combinations for hydrolysis were different for each mustard grain, but for both species, enzymatic hydrolysis and germination showed a positive effect on antioxidant properties. From UPLC-HRMS analysis and molecular network studies, 14 peptides and 17 phenolic compounds were identified as metabolites released from mustard after processes application, which were strongly correlated with increased antioxidant activity. In addition, enzymatic hydrolysis applied in germinated mustard grains for both mustards increased the cytotoxic activity against Caco-2 human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line.

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) exhibit broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and serve as effective antimicrobial agents against antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In this study, agricultural waste corn straw was used as the raw material to obtain cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) through enzymatic hydrolysis. The hydrolysate was employed as reducing agents to synthesize CNC-AgNPs.

In this study, the effects of ultrasound-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis on the production of antioxidant and antiosteoporotic peptides derived from oysters were investigated. Results showed that ultrasound-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis significantly enhanced the peptide content, free radical scavenging ability, and ferric reducing antioxidant power of total oyster protein hydrolysate (TOPH), with optimal results achieved at 200 W (TOPH-200). Correspondingly, ultrasound treatment at 200 W increased the exposure of hydrophobic regions, reduced α-helix content, and facilitated the generation of small molecular weight peptides in TOPH.

is a tasty and low-calorie mushroom containing abundant high-quality protein. This study aims to improve the digestibility of protein (PEP) and hence to facilitate its development as a healthy alternative protein. The extracted PEP was pretreated with 1000-5000 U of papain, neutral protease and alkaline protease.

The use of fish rest raw material for the production of fish protein hydrolysates (FPH) through enzymatic hydrolysis has received significant interest in recent decades. Peptides derived from fish proteins are known for their enhanced bioactivity which is mainly influenced by their molecular weight. Studies have shown that novel technologies, such as high-pressure processing (HPP), can effectively modify protein structures leading to increased biological activity.
