The digestive process of S. limacinum protein indicates its potential as a high-protein food ingredient, with increased antioxidant activity after enzymatic hydrolysis, especially within the 5-10 kDa molecular weight range.
Schizochytrium limacinum (S. limacinum) has potential as a high protein food ingredient. The digestibility of this protein was performed in the conditions of simulated stomach phase (with pepsin enzyme) and simulated small intestine phase (with alpha-chymotrypsin and trypsin). The whole hydrolysate was fractionated into various ranges of molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) by using ultrafiltration (UF) technique. Antioxidant activities of hydrolysate fractions were evaluated using direct free radical scavenging activity such as 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl Radical (DPPH center dot) scavenging, activity, 2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline)-6-sulfonic acidradical cation (ABTS center dot+) sscavengin activity and reducing power activity. In addition, the protective effect of purified peptide against oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) was determined. The microalgae proteins were completely hydrolyzed by digestive enzymes and the enzymatic hydrolysis of proteins resulted in increased antioxidant activity of peptides. The peptide fraction F3 (MWCO = 5-10 kDa) presented the highest antioxidant activity out of all the methods described. The protein hydrolysates showed higher reducing power, radical scavenging capacity and significantly inhibited LDL oxidation. These results suggest that the enzymatic hydrolysates from S. limacinum can act as novel antioxidants in functional foods.
