Stability & Cytotoxicity
Peptide stability
Literature report: (1) No apparent change was observed after in vitro incubation with gastrointestinal proteases (including pepsin, trypsin and chymotrypsin, p > 0.05), suggesting that peptides may be resistant to digestion in the gastrointestinal tract, and that the active sequence of the peptide would not be destroyed by these proteases. In addition, peptides were found to be stable after incubation simultaneously with the digestive enzymes.
(2) The heat-stability results showed that preincubation did not change the inhibitory activity of the purified peptides and IC50 values of peptides before and after preincubation were the same (data not shown).
