Abstract

The bioactive peptides derived from plants and  insects have increased contemplation for their  function in preventing numerous diseases,  including, cardiovascular diseases and microbial  infection. Edible insects comprise rich contents of  bioactive peptides, which are recognized as  antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, and  anti-obesity properties. The current investigation was aimed to assess the antihypertensive and  anti-microbial properties of protein hydrolysates  obtained from renowned seven edible insects’  after simulated gastrointestinal enzymatic  digestion. Antihypertensive efficiency was  determined by the inhibition of digestive  enzymes viz., ACE inhibitory activity. Three  active protein hydrolysate extracts (1.25, 2.5, and  5mg/dl) were selected based on the IC50 values  and all tested extracts inhibited those enzyme  activities in a dose-respective manner.  Antimicrobial activity was analyzed by the  Kirby–Bauer test using nine strains of Gram positive/negative bacteria with Candida albicans.  Based on the present study, we found the  outcome of antihypertensive and antimicrobial  activityof the protein hydrolysate obtained from  the seven edible insects.
