The invention belongs to the field of egg by-
product processing, and particularly relates to a preparation method and application of
eggshell membrane peptides, the preparation method of the
eggshell membrane peptides comprises the following steps: S1,
drying and crushing cleaned eggshells, and then separating
eggshell membranes; s2, putting the
eggshell membrane into a
steam explosion machine, carrying out pressure maintaining treatment for 1-5 minutes under the pressure of 1.0-1.5 MPa, then instantly releasing the pressure, and collecting a
steam explosion sample; s3, adding the
eggshell membrane subjected to
steam explosion treatment into a
sodium hydroxide aqueous solution with the pH value of 7-9 according to the
solid-
liquid ratio of 1: (20-30), then adding
alkaline protease according to the
enzyme addition amount of 5000-15000U / g, carrying out enzymolysis for 5-10 hours at the temperature of 35-65 DEG C, then inactivating for 3-5 minutes at the temperature of 100 DEG C, filtering enzymatic
hydrolysate, taking filtrate, centrifuging, taking supernate, and freeze-
drying to obtain polypeptide; s4, polypeptide obtained in S3 is dissolved in an activation solution to be activated for 8-10 h at the temperature of 4-8 DEG C; and S5, separating the sample activated in the step S4 through a
Sephadex G-15
chromatographic column to obtain the activated
eggshell membrane peptide. Based on the method, the preparation efficiency is high, and the prepared eggshell membrane
peptide is high in
antioxidant activity.
