title: Combined effects of high-pressure and enzymatic treatments on the hydrolysis of chickpea protein isolates and antioxidant activity of the hydrolysates.
abstract: A chickpea protein isolate (CPI) was pretreated before hydrolysis under a pressure that varied between 100 and 600MPa. The hydrolysis rate increased significantly with pressure above 300MPa. At 40min, the DH of the control was 15.3%, while the DH of the CPI treated at 300MPa was 18.5%, which reached 23.74% post treatment at 400MPa. The pretreatment of CPI above 300MPa enhanced the superoxide anion capturing rate of enzymatic hydrolysis. Pretreatment at 400MPa significantly reduced the hydrolysis time with the release of antioxidant peptides. While hydrolysis by Alcalase during treatment at high pressure (100-300MPa) significantly increased the degree of hydrolysis (DH), its maximum value peaked after hydrolysis at 200MPa for 30min. In addition, hydrolysates obtained at high pressure (100-300MPa) had a higher superoxide anion capturing rate. High-pressure treatment at 200MPa for 20min resulted in products with high antioxidative activity. The molecular-weight (MW) determination of the enzymatic hydrolysates indicated that hydrolysis at high pressure could significantly increase the amount of low-molecular-weight peptides.
