Abstract:
An aspect of the present specification relates to a fermented fruit product that has an outstanding taste and flavor with a content of Ca2+ ions in an amount of 100 ppm or higher on the basis of the total weight thereof. The scope of the invention includes a composition including the same and a method thereof. In a particular embodiment, the fruit comprises an apple. The fermented fruit product has an outstanding taste and flavor and exhibits an excellent effect of enhancing the absorption of calcium into the body or through the skin.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition for improving skin condition comprising a fermented pearl product. More specifically, the present invention provides a composition for improving skin condition which uses a fermented pearl product having remarkably increased ingredients such as amino acids, polyphenol, and organic calcium content, and has a remarkably enhanced skin condition-improving effect such as activity of inhibiting melanin production, and promoting differentiation and exfoliation of keratinocytes, as compared with conventional pearl extracts.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for producing corn gluten hydrolysate comprising: (a) separating corn gluten protein by removing carbohydrate, water soluble sugars, inorganic materials and fiber material; (b) preparing corn gluten protein lysate by carrying out acid hydrolysis, enzymatic hydrolysis or natural fermentation; and (c) increasing a content of branch chain amino acid (BCAA) which is included in the hydrolysate by isolating, concentrating, precipitating, desalting and filtering the resultant corn gluten protein lysate. With improved pre-treatment and concentration processes as compared with the conventional method, the hydrolysate prepared according to the present invention is rich in amino acids and low-molecular-weight peptides. In particular, free amino acids and branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) are included in large quantity.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a functional peptide having excellent antioxidant activity, the peptide having excellent biocompatibility and significantly better antioxidant activity than conventional GSHs in order to overcome the limitation of the weak antioxidant activity of existing peptides. The peptide of the present invention can promote antioxidant activity or effectively repair biological tissue or cell damage caused by reactive oxygen species generated due to oxidative stress. Therefore, the peptide having such antioxidant activity effectively acts on cell damage caused by oxidative stress, and can thus be used to prevent and repair cell damage.
