Changes in antioxidant activity of Alcalase-hydrolyzed soybean hydrolysate under simulated gastrointestinal digestion and transepithelial transport

Peptides from Alcalase-hydrolyzed soybean protein hydrolysate (SPH) may hold the potential as natural antioxidants. In addition, the effect of human gastrointestinal (GI) tract on peptide bioavailability needs to be explored. In this study, the impact of simulated GI digestion and transepithelial transport on various antioxidant properties of SPH were investigated. SPH displayed DPPH radical scavenging (IC50 = 4.22 mg/mL), ABTS+ radical...
