Egg White Peptide

1. Food additive field: dual upgrade of nutrition and flavor
In the food industry, it is undoubtedly a functional star ingredient. It usually presents as a fine powder ranging from light yellow to off white, without lumps or impurities, with a special but non fishy odor, excellent solubility, and can quickly dissolve in water to form a uniform solution.

Specific application forms include:
Beverages and dairy products: Adding them to protein drinks and functional dairy products not only enhances nutritional value, but also improves taste and texture, enhancing the flavor level of the product.

Pastry and baked food: use its good emulsification, gel and foaming properties to improve the dough structure and improve the baking quality.
Meat processing: It is added to sausage, Rice-meat dumplings and other products as a nutritional enhancer to improve the protein content and optimize the taste.

In terms of dosage, the common addition amount is between 0.1% and 1%, which needs to be adjusted according to the type of food, formula, and process requirements, and must comply with national food safety standards. In addition, ovalbumin peptides can enhance the stability and shelf life of food, improve the shelf life performance of products, and can be regarded as a "versatile" in the food industry.

2. Health supplements and nutritional supplements: a strong barrier to protect health
The application in the field of health products is comprehensive and in-depth, covering almost all aspects of human health.

2.1. Enhance immunity
Protein malnutrition can lead to widespread atrophy of lymphoid tissue, especially in children's thymus, spleen lymph nodes, etc., which can be severely affected.

Experiments have shown that after 40 days of oral administration of ovalbumin peptide to Kunming mice, the proliferation activity of splenic lymphocytes increased by 18% compared to the control group, fully demonstrating its significant enhancement effect on immune tissue function. It can effectively

activate T cells, B cells, and NK cells in the immune surveillance system, identify, capture, engulf, and kill abnormal cells, and prevent the occurrence of lesions. The significance of resisting virus and bacterial invasion is particularly significant for teenagers, children, and the elderly.

2.2. Adjust blood pressure
Excellent ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) inhibitory activity was demonstrated in vitro experiments. In vivo experiments have confirmed that it can significantly inhibit ACE activity, reduce the level of Ang II (angiotensin II) in the plasma of SHR rats, and effectively lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

What's even more rare is that ACE inhibitory activity can still be maintained after treatment with digestive enzymes, and it can be absorbed into the bloodstream in an active form to exert a hypotensive effect, which is closely related to its excellent stability.

2. 3. Antioxidant and anti-aging
It can effectively eliminate various reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as DPPH, AAPH, ABTS, and has iron chelation activity and reduction activity. It can capture reactive oxygen species generated by different systems, and block peroxidation reactions through various pathways such as activating antioxidant enzymes that clear free radicals in the body, inhibiting oxidase activity, and chelating metal ions, thereby delaying the aging process.

2. 4. Regulate blood sugar levels
Its hypoglycemic effect is closely related to improving insulin resistance in the body.

In a high-fat diet induced insulin resistance mouse model, it enhances insulin induced Akt phosphorylation in muscles and liver, promotes cellular glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis, and thereby reduces glucose levels in the circulatory system. In addition, the RVPSLM and TPSPR sequences in ovalbumin

also exhibit good alpha glucosidase inhibitory activity, which can be used to prevent postprandial hyperglycemia.

2. 5. Regulating lipid metabolism
Egg white peptide can significantly reduce the weight of epididymal fat and lower the levels of plasma fatty acids, triglycerides, and cholesterol in Zucker obese rats. In the metabolic syndrome rat model induced by a high sugar and high-fat diet, it significantly reduced body mass, inhibited the increase of epididymal fat and liver weight, and promoted the fecal excretion of cholesterol and bile acids, playing a regulatory role in multiple stages of lipid metabolism.

2. 6. Improve digestion and intestinal health
Rich in glutamic acid and glutamine, it has significant effects on regulating gut microbiota, promoting the recovery of ultra short bowel syndrome, improving food conversion rate, and promoting iron absorption. In cases of ultra short bowel syndrome, after 3 months of feeding with foods supplemented with ovalbumin peptides, not only did clinical symptoms improve significantly, but beneficial gut microbiota also increased significantly, with bifidobacteria values exceeding 14% of the upper limit for healthy men aged 19-40 in Beijing.

2. 7. Liver protection
Albumin in the human body is mainly synthesized by the liver, which is a heavy burden for those with impaired liver function.

And it is absorbed through a special channel in the intestinal mucosa, directly participating in the biochemical processes of body tissues without the need for the liver to participate, greatly reducing the burden of liver synthesis and promoting liver function recovery. Meanwhile, it can improve microcirculation, eliminate edema, and greatly benefit patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

2.8. Suitable for special populations
For patients with miscarriage, nephrotic syndrome, severe hepatitis, burns, cancer, gastrointestinal diseases, as well as the elderly, growing and developing children, pregnant women, lactating women, those with weak physical condition before and after surgery, and patients in the recovery period, moderate supplementation can promote the recovery of immune tissue function and improve the body's ability to resist diseases.

3. Medicine and clinical adjuvant therapy: excellent non pharmacological treatments
Egg albumin peptides have opened up a new and effective way for biological peptides to supplement albumin in the body. It provides the physiological basis nutrition for the synthesis of various serum proteins in the human body, which can fully stimulate and mobilize the body's digestion, absorption, and protein synthesis functions. It is a good non pharmacological adjuvant therapy for various chronic diseases and hypoalbuminemia patients.

After entering the body, it can be quickly absorbed and utilized, increasing serum protein content, improving microcirculation, increasing food conversion rate, and enhancing the absorption of nutrients such as iron and nucleic acid.

Researchers have found using isotope tracing that it promotes the absorption and transport of nucleosides in the small intestine, and increases their distribution in liver and thymus tissues. Co consumption with nucleic acids can promote the absorption and utilization of nucleosides, enhance cellular immune function, and may be beneficial for the salvage synthesis of nucleic acid metabolism in immune cells.
In traditional medicine, egg white itself has certain medicinal value. The Compendium of Materia Medica records the miraculous effects of "chicken roe white" and "red bean powder, coated with all heat toxins, pills, swelling, and cheek pain". The "Compendium of Materia Medica" and "Compendium of Materia Medica" also record its effects in "relieving fever and restlessness" and "treating throat pain". Modern research has further confirmed its efficacy in relieving pain, stopping bleeding, and wound healing in burns and scalds.

4. Cosmetics and Personal Care: The Beauty Code from the Inside Out
It has also shown great potential in the field of daily chemical and beauty products. Its moisturizing, antioxidant, and skin repairing functions make it an ideal ingredient for high-end skincare products.
Moisturizing function: Rich in hydrophilic amino acids, it can effectively lock in skin moisture and maintain a hydrated state of the skin.
Antioxidant function: Clearing free radicals, delaying skin oxidative aging, reducing the production of fine lines and pigmentation.
Repair function: Promote skin cell regeneration and repair, improve skin texture, and enhance overall skin quality.
These characteristics make it have broad application prospects in anti-aging skin care products, repair facial mask, essence liquid and other products.
