| Abstract: | ABSTRACTSandy beach clam meat was hydrolyzed with proteases (Alcalase and Flavozyme) for the manufacture of a natural flavoring condiment. The optimal conditions for the enzymatic hydrolysis of the shellfish meat via the response surface methodology were: temperature, 54.7°C; pH, 5.9; time, 45 h. The total amino acid content of the shellfish hydrolysate was 9,218.8 mg/100 g and consisted mainly of glutamic acid, aspartic acid, glycine, arginine, lysine, and leucine. Nucleotides and their related compounds of the shellfish hydrolysate consisted mainly of adenosine diphosphate (0.86 mg/100 g), adenosine monophosphate (11.24 mg/100 g), and inosine (49.03 mg/100 g). The shellfish hydrolysate resulted in three protein peaks in the Bio-Rad P2 gel chromatography pattern. The antioxidant activity was highest at Peak 1 (64.67%), followed by Peak 2 (27.48%) and Peak 3 (16.67%); whereas the angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitory activity was highest at Peak 3 (67.27%), followed by Peak 2 (6.14%). Antitumor activity was highest at Peak 1 (18.77%), followed by Peak 2 (8.75%). All the sensory attributes of the shellfish condiment were scored highly. Therefore, the sand beach clam hydrolysate can be commercialized as an ingredient of a natural flavoring condiment or seasoning. |
