Description
Summary:Low molecular weight peptides are produced during meat fermentation. They contribute to generate flavor compounds but they can also exert certain bioactivities. The aim of this work was to evaluate, for the first time, the generation of bioactive peptides during the preparation of dry fermented camel sausages and to study the influence of the ripening time and the starter culture on bacteria growing, peptide concentration and size, and antioxidant and antihypertensive capacities of peptides. Camel meat sausages inoculated with different starter bacteria and non-inoculated were ripened up to 28days. Results demonstrated that bacteria population, peptide concentration, and peptide size were affected by the ripening time and the inoculated bacteria. Moreover, the ripening process resulted in an increasing antioxidant and antihypertensive capacity showing the highest bioactivities in fractions with peptides below 3kDa. Peptides in these fractions were identified by RP-HPLC-Q-TOF-MS analysis. Identified peptides showed common features with peptides with antioxidant or antihypertensive activity.
