Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process to produce a composition comprising water-soluble peptides and having a Trp/LNAA ratio of more than 0.15, which comprises hydrolyzing lysozyme, preferably hen eggs lysozyme, to prepare a hydrolysate having a DH of between 5 and 45.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the proteolytic hydrolysis of a peptide or a polypeptide, said peptide or polypeptide comprising 4 to 40, preferably 5 to 35, amino acid residues and said peptide or polypeptide is not hydrolysable by subtilisin whereby said peptide or polypeptide is hydrolysed by a proline specific endo protease at a pH of 6.5 or lower, preferably 5.5 or lower and more preferably 5.0 or lower to hydrolyse said peptide or polypeptide.
