Analysis of structural composition and antioxidant activity of traditional fermented sour meat peptides
Food Chemistry(2024)
Abstract
Chinese traditional fermented sour meat has a unique flavor and nutritional value. The antioxidant activity of sour meat peptides is related to their molecular weights, amino acid compositions, and structural characteristics. Therefore, this study explores the relationships between them. The results indicate that sour meat peptides with molecular weights <1 kDa exhibit significant antioxidant properties both in vitro and in vivo. The smaller the molecular weights, the higher the content of typical amino acids with antioxidant activity (p <0.05), and the characteristic peaks of ultraviolet absorption decrease. The absorption peak at 284.5 nm blue-shifted, and the polarity of the microenvironment increased. The peak intensity and peak area of the Raman characteristic peaks of tyrosine residues and aliphatic amino acids were enhanced. In the secondary structure, there is a high content of β-turns and a low content of α-helix, which are closely related to the enhancement of antioxidant activity.
