Selection of Potential Probiotic Yeasts from Dry-Cured Xuanwei Ham and Identification of Yeast-Derived Antioxidant Peptides

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to select potential probiotic yeasts from dry-cured Xuanwei ham and investigate yeast-derived antioxidant peptides. The results showed that two strains (XHY69 and XHY79) were selected as potential probiotic yeasts and identified as Yamadazyma triangularis. The two yeasts showed tolerance under pH 2.5 and 1% bile salt, in addition to protease activity, auto-aggregation, antibacterial, and antioxidant activities. The peptide fraction (MW < 3 kDa) isolated from XHY69 fermentation broth, named XHY69AP, showed higher radical scavenging activities than glutathione at a concentration of 4.5 mg/mL (p < 0.05). The fraction (AP-D10) was purified from XHY69AP by gel filtration chromatography and reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography, and then further identifi
