    Abstract:
    Antioxidant activities of protein hydrolysates from threadfin bream surimi wastes, including frame, bone and skin (FBS) and refiner discharge (RD), were investigated. FBS and RD were rich in Lys, Glu, Gly, Pro, Asp, Leu, His, Tyr and Phe. FBS was hydrolysed to a greater extent than RD regardless of proteinases tested (Virgibacillus sp. SK33 proteinase, Alcalase, pepsin and trypsin). Pepsin-hydrolysed FBS, at a 5% degree of hydrolysis (DH), showed the highest antioxidant activity based on 2,2'-azinobis (3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulphonate) (ABTS) radical (0.455±0.054mg Trolox equivalents/mg leucine equivalents), ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) (0.221±0.005mM Trolox equivalents) and inhibition of β-carotene bleaching assays. FBS hydrolysates showed higher antioxidant activity based on chemical assays than their RD counterparts. However, FBS and RD hydrolysates protected HepG2 cells against tert-butyl hydroperoxide-induced oxidative damage to a similar extent. Therefore, FBS and RD hydrolysates have a potential as antioxidative neutraceutical ingredients.
