Evaluating the Properties of Ginger Protease-Degraded Collagen Hydrolysate and Identifying the Cleavage Site of Ginger Protease by Using an Integrated Strategy and LC-MS Technology.

ABSTRACT: (1) Methods: An integrated strategy, including in vitro study (degree of hydrolysis (DH) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity) and in vivo study (absorption after oral administration in rats), was developed to evaluate the properties of the fish skin gelatin hydrolysates prepared using different proteases (pepsin, alkaline protease, bromelain, and ginger protease). Meanwhile, in order to identify the hydrolysis site of ginger protease, the peptides in the ginger protease-degraded collagen hydrolysate (GDCH) were comprehensively characterized by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method. (2) Results: The GDCH exhibited the highest DH (20.37%) and DPPH radical scavenging activity (77.73%), and in vivo experiments showed that the GDCH was mo
