Oyster peptide ia a small molecular collagen peptide, it is extracted from fresh oyster or natural dried oyster by special pre-treatment and targeted bio-enzyme digestion technology at low temperture. Oyster peptide contains the trace elements (Zn,Se,ect.), oyster polysaccharides and taurine. It is widely used in food, pharmaceuticals and health care products.
Application & Efficacy
Oyster peptides are not only rich in protein, vitamins, trace elements with appropriate proportion and taurine, but also contain a variety of nutrients that oyster can improve the level of testosterone in male serum, regulate blood lipid, inhibit platelet aggregation, improve the symptoms of hyperglycemia, improve immunity, protect liver and promote metabolism.
- Antithrombotic activity It has been proved that oyster peptides, released in the SID (simulated intestinal digestion) tract, increase the APTT (activated partial thromboplastin time) for human serum clotting. In addition, Lineweaver-Burk plot analysis shows a competitive inhibition effect on thrombin. One novel peptide,LSKEEIEEAKEV, identified from oyster hydrolysates, shows a high affinity to thrombin, displaying similar characteristics to those of bivalirudin and hirudin variant-2.
- Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory Bingjun Qian studied the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of four hydrophobic peptide fractions which obtained from enzyme hydrolysates of oyster soft tissue. The results show that they exhibited the antioxidant capacity based on DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical) scavenging capacity, FRAP (ferric reducing antioxidant power) and ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) assay in vitro. In addition, the four peptide fractions also showed anti-inflammatory activities.
- Protective effect on testicular injury and spermatogenesis disorders Xueyan Zhang stidied the mechanism of peptide from oyster on triptolide-induced testis injury in male mice. The results showed that Ops (oyster peptides) significantly improved the sperm count and motility of mice and alleviated the seminiferous tubule injury. Possible mechanism is showed below.
