AB  - The main purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of high-intensity ultrasound treatment on one-step proteolysis of egg white proteins (EWPs) using commercial food-grade protease Alcalase as well as evaluating antioxidant and antibacterial capacity of sonicated hydrolysates rich in bioactive peptides. Prior to the Alcalase proteolysis, a series of 10 % (w/w) egg white (EW) solution samples were exposed to ultrasonic waves in ultrasonic water bath with a frequency of 40 kHz during 15 min and ultrasound probe high-intensity with a frequency 20 kHz during 15 min. The sonicated EWP solutions were intensively hydrolysed by the addition the bacterial endopeptidase from Bacillus licheniformis, namely Alcalase in the amount of 2 % (w/w). The proteolysis was performed in a glass batch reactor with mechanical stirring at 240 rpm at optimum condition for Alcalase (50 °C and pH 8.0). Upon completion of the hydrolysis, the reaction mixture was cooled down to room temperature and centrifuged at 12,000×g for 10 min. The bioactive hydrolysate was finally collected by decantation and stored at 4 °C. The antioxidant capacity of bioactive hydrolysates was evaluated by measurements the oxidation of β-carotene linoleic acid emulsion and scavenging of hydroxyl radicals. The antibacterial capacity was estimated against Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923) and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli ATCC 25922) by hydrolysates' susceptibility of agar diffusion. The hydrolysate derived by proteolysis-assited ultrasound probe (UPH) has shown to be most effective in oxidation of β-carotene linoleic acid emulsion compared to hydrolysate acquired by proteolysis-assited ultrasound bath (UBH). The values of inhibition of lipid peroxidation were 85.4±0.42 and 73.9±0.49% for UPH and UBH respectively. The both hydrolysates were found to be potent scavengers of hydroxyl radicals compared to the untreated EW and its hydrolysate. Namely, UPH and UBH hydroxyl radical scavenging activities were 61.6±0.18 and 62.3±0.22 %, respectively. The results acquired from this research pointed that EWP hydrolysates have an intense inhibitory activity on Gram-positive bacteria, poor on Gram-negative bacteria, especially UPH. The inhibition zone both sonicated hydrolysates were significantly greater that control. Minimal inhibitor concentration against S. aureus and E. coli of UPH was significantly higher than UBH (63.3±0.83 μg/mL and 79.1±1.04 μg/mL, respectively). This research emphasized that by proteolysis-assisted high intensity ultrasound treatment, received hydrolysate with improved antimicrobial and antioxidant activities can be promoted enhancing utilization of EWPs as bioactive component of dietary supplements. Likewise, the results have been indicated that the
producing bioactive hydrolysates from intact EWPs were affected by the ultrasound treatment type.

AB  - The main objective of this research is to quantitatively investigate the impact of high intensity
ultrasound waves generated by probe-type sonicator on the selected functional and structural properties of papainassisted egg white protein hydolysis (PEWPHs). As well, the effect of pretreatment time on the susceptibility to proteolysis was investigated. 10 % (w/w) aqueous solution of egg white proteins (EWPs) was sonicated at an actual ultrasonic power of 30.7 W. The trials have been accomplished using the modified vibratory cavitation test set up source at resonant frequency of 20 ± 0.2 kHz during the different pretreatment time (2, 5, 10, 15 and 20 minutes). The functional properties of the PEWPHs were probed in terms of solubility, digestibility and foaming ability. In order to understand the molecular structure and morphology of ultrasound pretreated EWPs, sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were employed to image the materials. The performance of ultrasound PEWPHs were compared to their untreated counterparts. The proteolytic pattern of papain-assisted EWP hydrolysis was significantly improved for all pretreatment time applied, but the prolonged exposure to ultrasound of 20 min seemed to have a negative effect on the EWPs hydrolysis. The treatment of the EWPs during 5 min can be adopted as the optimal for PEWPHs.
Ultrasound pretreatment seemed to increase solubility and digestibility and also caused enhanced foaming properties of PEWPHs compared to the control (untreated EWPs). It was found that particle morphology (SEM images) of PEWPHs were completely different and the less small particles were trapped in large dents of large particles and narrow range of particle size was observed for ultrasound pretreated PEWPHs. SDS-PAGE patterns affected on the release some small peptides (< 14.4 kDa) causing a significant decrease in molecular weight of ultrasound pretreated PEWPHs. The outcomes presented here suggest that the application of the probe-type sonicator have na important role in the improvement of functional and structural properties of PEWPHs and the combined ultrasound pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis, not only represents a rapid, efficient and reliable alternative to improve the quality of EWPs, but it also has the potential to develop new products with a unique functionality.

AB  - The objective of this research was a production of egg white protein hydrolysates with improved antioxidant properties. For this purpose, a thermal and ultrasound pretreated egg white proteins were intensively hydrolysed with a commercial food-grade bacterial protease Alcalase. Thus obtained hydrolysates were further separated by sequential ultrafiltration into four peptide fraction viz. Fraction I (> 30kDa), II (10 - 30 kDa), III (1 - 10 kDa) and IV (< 1kDa) which were investigated in terms of their antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activity of hydrolysates and peptide fractions were evaluated using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) radical scavenging assays and measuring ferric reducing antioxidant power assay. Scavenging of 2,2′-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) by Fraction III, prepared with ultrasound pretreatment (35 kHz - 30 min) was found to be significantly higher than other fractions (21.17 ± 2.01 % and 80.72 ± 1.32 %, respectively), while ferric reducing antioxidant power assay has proven to be the best for thermal pretreatment. The results show that the fractionated hydrolysates were superior to the original hydrolysate in the antioxidative activity tested and can be concluded that by combining ultrasound pretreatment hydrolysates with improved functional and antioxidant properties can be produced enhancing utilization of egg white in food products.

AB  - Wheat gluten is a relatively inexpensive industrial byproduct from wheat starch processing, and in
Europe also from manufacturing of bioethanol fuel. Egg producers are also faced with problems of
excess of egg white because mayonnaise industry and bakery industry use relatively high egg yolk
amounts and egg white is the remainder. Of high importance is the production of new value-added
products based on gluten and/or egg white proteins with improved properties and specialized functionality to be used in food and biobased consumer products. The objective of this research was a production of both wheat gluten and egg white protein hydrolysates with improved antioxidant properties. For this purpose, both substrates were pretreated by thermal treatment and then intensively hydrolysed with a commercial food-grade bacterial protease, Alcalase. Thus, the obtained hydrolysates were further separated by sequential ultrafiltration into four peptide fraction viz.

The results show that the fractionated hydrolysates were superior to the original hydrolysate in the antioxidative activity tested in all cases and can be concluded that by combining thermal pretreatment and controlled enzymatic hydrolysis, the hydrolysates with improved antioxidant properties can be produced enhancing utilization of egg white and gluten in food products.

hydrolysates were further separated by sequential ultrafiltration into four peptide fractions viz. fraction I (> 30kDa), II (10 - 30 kDa), III (1 - 10 kDa) and IV (< 1kDa) which were investigated in terms of their antimicrobial activity. The antimicrobial activity was tested against Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923), Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli ATCC 25922) and against yeast Candida albicans (ATCC 24433) by fractions' susceptibility of agar diffusion. Our results showed that these peptide fractions have an intense inhibitory activity on Gram-positive bacteria, poor on Gram-negative bacteria and none inhibitory activity on growth of C. albicans. The results showed interesting antimicrobial potentials versus the tested microorganisms, especially fractions with peptides molecular weight of 10-30 kDa and 1-10 kDa. It can be concluded, that the controlled enzymatic hydrolysis of egg white proteins and their subsequent membrane ultrafiltration is considered to be a suitable way for production of biocative peptides with exhibit antimicrobial efficiency.

AB  - The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of ultrasound pretreatment on two-step enzymatic hydrolysis of egg white proteins (EWPs) using commercial food-grade proteases as well as evaluating some functional properties of obtained hydrolysates. 
Three commercially available proteases used in this work were: alcalase from Bacillus licheniformis, neutrase from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and flavourzyme from Aspergillus oryzae. Thus obtained hydrolysates were further separated by sequential ultrafiltration into three peptide fraction viz. Fraction I (< 1kDa), II (1 - 10 kDa), III (10 - 30 kDa) which were investigated in terms of their antioxidant activity. The antioxidant activity of hydrolysates and peptide fractions were evaluated using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay. 
Comparing the hydrolytic curves of two-step enzymatic process, the highest equilibrium degree of hydrolysis (DH) was achieved by a combination of alcalase and neutrase. The order of addition of these two proteolytic enzymes didn't lead to significant differences in the initial rate of reaction, but significantly affected the equilibrium DH (32.25 ± 2.08%). The two-step hydrolysis, in which flavourzyme is followed by alcalase, seemed to perform with the same initial rate, but DH was considerably lower (28.23 ± 0.91%). Two-step enzymatic hydrolysis appeared to increase solubility and substantially improved the foam stability while the foam capacity didn't change significantly vs. control. The high yield of peptides soluble at pH 6 and pH 8 were obtained by combination of alcalase and flavourzyme while more voluminous foams were obtained with alcalase and neutrase. The most abundant fraction in terms of antioxidant activity was the Fraction II, which indicates that the combination of alcalase and flavourzyme was efficient at reducing the pretreated into low molecular weight peptides. 
This study showed that by combining ultrasound pretreatment under controlled conditions with careful proteases selection, hydrolysates with improved functional and antioxidant properties can be produced enhancing utilization of egg white in food products.

AB  - The effects of the ultrasound pretreatment on functional properties of egg white proteins (EWPs) and
their subsequent hydrolysis by Alcalase were investigated. Functional properties of the obtained
hydrolysates were characterized in terms of solubility, turbidity, emulsification activity and foaming
properties. The ultrasound pretreatment at 20 kHz for 15 min by using ultrasound probe has been
shown to accelerate the hydrolysis process and generate more reproducible results, compared with
both, heat treatment or treatment in an ultrasonic water baths at 40 kHz under similar conditions. It was
also shown that the ultrasound pretreatment resulted in an increase in total and reactive thiol content,
suggesting an unfolding of the protein molecules. Minor secondary and tertiary structural changes have
also been confirmed by circular dichroism. The produced hydrolysate, under optimum condition, was
characterized in terms of antioxidant properties and peptide composition.
Industrial relevance: Egg producers are faced with problems of excess of egg white because
mayonnaise industry and bakery industry use relatively high egg yolk amounts and egg white is
remainder. In this work, EWPs was treated by high intensity ultrasound and then hydrolyzed by
Alcalase. Effects of treatment time on the functional properties of EWPs and susceptibility to
proteolysis were investigated. The results showed that the ultrasound technology could improve
functional and antioxidant activity of EWPs under the controlled conditions.

AB  - High-intensity ultrasound represents a non-thermal processing method that has been extensively researched and used in the last decade. The application of power ultrasound offers the opportunity to modify and improve some technologically important compounds which are often used in food products, such as proteins. The focus of this research was to evaluate the effect of high-intensity ultrasound on egg white proteins (EWPs) with an objective to improve their functional properties. 
In this study, 10% (w/w) aqueous solution of egg white was treated with ultrasound probe which frequency was 20 kHz and treatments were performed for 5, 10, 15 and 20 min. The effect of the treatment was examined for aforementioned properties: the change of pH and temperature, solubility, foaming by a whipping method, emulsifying by turbidometric technique, sulfydryl content (exposed and total SH groups), antioxidant and antimicrobial activity and susceptibility of treated samples to enzymatic hydrolysis. 
Ultrasound affected functional properties of egg white proteins and improved antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. Furthermore, the samples showed an increased concentration of the total SH groups, while the concentration of exposed SH groups was not affected. pH did not change significantly upon the ultrasound treatment, while the temperature of the egg white solutions increased. 
These results suggest that high-intensity ultrasound probe can be used for improvement of the functionality of the EWPs and thus it could be potentially applied in the food industries. The trials reported here may represent relevant information to consider when attempt¬ing the use of high-intensity treatment for improving functional properties.

AB  - Enzymatic hydrolysis of egg white proteins (EWPs) has shown a great potential to improve their functional properties such as increased solubility, stability, and digestibility while still retaining their nutrition value. The high selectivity and mild reaction conditions associated with the enzymatic process have made this approach an attractive alternative in the production of EWPs with improved functional properties, which are often difficult to obtain by conventional chemical route. Moreover, the inherent specificity of various proteolytic enzymes should control the nature and extent of hydrolysis and thus the functional properties of the product.
The focus of this work is to find the best combination of enzymes and the mode of both substrate pretreatment and process implementation for improvement of the overall hydrolysates` quality. For this purpose EWP solution was hydrolysed with several enzymes using both, one-step and two-step hydrolysis in a stirred stirred-tank reactor employing an enzyme to protein substrate weight ratio previously selected to obtain the desired level of conversion in the first step within a time period from about 20 to about 75 minutes depending of protease used. The obtained hydrolysates were then tested on antioxidant activity, flavour, solubility, digestibility emulsifying activity, foaming capacity and stability. Selected results have been presented in Figure 1.
The application of two-step enzymatic process, based on the use of the bacterial alkaline protease in the first step, and then the introduction a more specific protease in the second step to selectively reduce the bitter peptides, seemed to be advantageous.

AB  - The kinetics of hydrolysis of egg white proteins by Alcalase 2.4L (protease from Bacillus licheniformis) was investigated. In this paper, the main objective was to determine the
appropriate empirical model for the proteolytic hydrolysis of egg white. A logarithmic
equation X = (1/b) ln (1 + abt) indicating the relationship between the degree of hydrolysis
(DH) and time was established. Experimental data were successfully fitted with kinetic
model taking into account the enzyme inactivation and substrate inhibition, and related
kinetic constants were determined. The kinetic study was performed at optimum process
parameters: initial enzyme concentration of Alcalase 2.4L, initial substrate concentration
of the egg white proteins and different temperatures of the reaction. The kinetic and
thermodynamic constants for reaction of hydrolysis (Ki = 320.07 mg cm-3, k2 =0.0104 min-1,
kd = 0.0743 min-1, Ea = 103.04 kJ mol-1, Ed = 99.52 kJ mol-1) were responsible for the
empirical equation. Kinetic constants of the hydrolysis were determined, and good
congruence between the model and experimental data was achieved. The results of
nonlinear regression of the proposed kinetic model agreed with the experimental data,
thus the kinetic equations can be used to fit the enzymatic hydrolysis process of egg white
protein and to optimize the operating parameters for the bioreactor design.
