An antioxidant active polypeptide and a preparation method and application thereof
By preparing earthworm polypeptides F1-2 and F1-3, the problem of insufficient efficacy of existing antioxidant polypeptides has been solved, achieving highly efficient free radical scavenging and antioxidant effects. These polypeptides can be applied to pharmaceuticals, food additives, and skin care products, avoiding the side effects of artificial synthesis.

AI Technical Summary
Existing antioxidant peptides are not sufficiently effective in antioxidation and may have side effects due to their artificial synthesis.
Two earthworm polypeptides, F1-2 and F1-3, were prepared using artificial synthesis methods. The amino acids were coupled one by one and purified using the Fmoc polypeptide solid-phase synthesis method. Specific small molecule polypeptide fragments were extracted from earthworms by combining earthworm enzymatic hydrolysis, ultrafiltration, and gel chromatography purification techniques.
Earthworm polypeptides F1-2 and F1-3 exhibit significant antioxidant effects, effectively scavenging DPPH free radicals and alleviating premature aging caused by oxidative stress. They can be applied in pharmaceuticals, food additives, and skincare products, and are low-cost, safe, and without side effects.
