Summary: | This study aimed to investigate the potential of egg white protein hydrolysate (EWH) as a functional food by identifying the optimum production conditions for EWH with response surface methodology (the results of the sensory evaluation were considered as an essential quality indicator). At the same time, its physicochemical and biological activity was also evaluated. The optimal economic production conditions were selected: substrate concentration of 12.5%, enzyme content of 7.5%, and hydrolysis time at 100 min. The degree of hydrolysis (DH %) was 13.51%. In addition, to the better acceptance of the evaluation, it also helps to reduce the production cost of the protein hydrolysate, which is beneficial to future processing and applications. The antioxidant capacity experiments showed that EWH has good antioxidant activity, which presents a dose-dependent relationship. Hence, this study provides a theoretical basis for future research and application of EWH for processing applications, including dietary supplementation. |
