description | The effects of chemical protein extraction, and enzymatic hydrolysis with Alcalase, papain and pepsin, on the functional properties, antioxidant activity, amino acid composition and protein structure of black soldier fly (<i>H. illucens</i>) larval protein were examined. Alcalase hydrolysates had the highest degree of hydrolysis (<i>p <</i> 0.05), with the highest hydrolysate and oil fraction yield (<i>p</i> < 0.05). Pepsin hydrolysates showed the lowest oil holding capacity (<i>p</i> < 0.05), whereas no significant differences were observed among other enzymes and protein concentrates (<i>p</i> > 0.05). The emulsifying stability and foam capacity were significantly lower in protein hydrolysates than protein concentrate (<i>p</i> < 0.05). The antioxidant activity of protein hydrolysates from protein concentrate and Alcalase was higher than that with papain and pepsin (<i>p</i> < 0.05), owing to the higher hydrophobic amino acid content. Raman spectroscopy indicated structural changes in protein α-helices and β-sheets after enzymatic hydrolysis. |
