Other steps are the same as in Example 1.
[0081] Comparative Example 6
[0082] This comparative example provides a method for preparing oat peptides. The only difference between this method and Example 1 is that papain is not used in the first enzymatic hydrolysis in step (3), and its amount is allocated to Bacillus subtilis neutral protease. Other steps are the same as in Example 1.
[0083] Comparative Example 7
[0084] This comparative example provides a method for preparing oat peptides. The only difference between this method and Example 1 is that in step (3), the first enzymatic hydrolysis does not use Bacillus subtilis neutral protease, but allocates its amount to papain instead. The rest is the same as in Example 1.
[0085] The molecular weight, peptide content, and activity of the oat peptides obtained in the above examples and comparative examples were tested. The molecular weight was tested according to GB / T27843-2011, the peptide content was tested according to GB / T22492-2008, and the DPPH free radical scavenging rate was tested according to GB / T 39100-2020. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0086] Table 1. Results of molecular weight, peptide content, and DPPH free radical scavenging rate.
[0087]
[0088] As shown in Table 1, the oat peptide preparation method provided by this invention, through germination, defatting, and enzymatic hydrolysis, yields oat peptides with smaller molecular weight, higher peptide content, and better bioactivity. Specifically, the molecular weight is 476-520 Da, the peptide content is 20.3-27.7 g / 100 g, and the DPPH free radical scavenging rate reaches 75.7-86.7%.
[0089] The comparison between Examples 1 and Examples 4-6 shows that the germination aid of the present invention uses a combination of calcium chloride, gibberellin and 6-benzylaminopurine. The three components can synergistically promote oat germination, enabling it to better activate endogenous proteases to degrade proteins, which helps to increase the content and activity of oat peptides.
[0090] The comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 shows that when ungerminated oats are used directly for small molecule peptide extraction, the peptide content decreases significantly and the activity is reduced.
[0091] The comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Examples 2-7 shows that if the two-step enzymatic hydrolysis process and enzyme components of the present invention are not used, the enzymatic hydrolysis effect is significantly reduced, the peptide content is significantly reduced, and the activity is reduced.
