Abstract:[Objective] To improve the comprehensive utilization of salted duck egg white, bioactive proteolytic products were prepared. [Methods] In this study, salted duck egg white wasdesalted and graded by ultrafiltration. The protein fractions of salted duck egg white within different molecular weight ranges were hydrolyzed by pepsin. The bacterial inhibition and antioxidant activitiesofthe hydrolysates were determined in vitro, including the determination of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), and cell membrane integrity. [Results] Three fractions of different molecular weights were obtained from salted duck egg white by ultrafiltration, which were fraction A with Mw>50 kDa, fraction B with 50 kDa>Mw>20 kDa and fraction C with 20 kDa>Mw>5 kDa. Among them, the hydrolysates of fractions A and B had inhibitory effects on the growth of Escherichia coli. The MICs of the two fractions were 1 024 μg/mL and 2 048 μg/mL, respectively, and the MBCs were both 2 048 μg/mL. The OD600 value of E. coli was about 1.15 after entering the stationary phase. When the hydrolytic peptide was added at a concentration of 1×MIC, the OD600 values of the bacterial solution in stationary phase decreased to 0.79 (A) and 0.86 (B), respectively. When the hydrolytic peptide was added at a concentration of 2×MIC, the OD600 values decreased to 0.5 (A) and 0.68 (B), respectively. The two hydrolysates had good antibacterial effects, which were attributed to the destruction of E. coli cell membrane. However, Staphylococcus aureus was not sensitive to all three hydrolysates, and the inhibitory effect was poor. Moreover, the hydrolysates of fractions A, B and C all had antioxidant activities, and their scavenging ability against DPPH radicals reached 0.50, 0.67 and 0.38 times Trolox, respectively. [Conclusion] The salted duck egg white could be simultaneously desalted and enriched to obtain different target proteins by ultrafiltration. The hydrolysates of the obtained target proteins possessed antibacterial and antioxidant activities, and could be used as nutritional additives, which improved the added value and utilization of salted duck egg white.
