The aim of this study was to incorporate astaxanthin to yogurts with different fat content to match apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) color. The samples containing astaxanthin were stored at 5 ± 3 °C, and color stability and astaxanthin content were determined by colorimetry and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), respectively. Yogurt samples were analyzed in triplicate every 24 hours for one week and subsequently every week for 3 more weeks There were no significant differences (p < 0.05) between astaxanthin concentration values at 0 and 28 days for both samples; therefore, it can be said that the fat content in the yogurt had not effect on the stability of pigment. The low dispersion of the data showed uniformity in the three chromaticity coordinates L*, a*, b* throughout the storage period for both types of yogurt. Values of ∆E ≥ 5.0 were not obtained at any time during storage, indicating high stability of the pigment.

Phaseolus lunatus protein concentrates and the proteases Alcalase(R) and Pepsin-Pancreatin were used for the production of protein hydrolysates that inhibit angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE). Protein concentrate obtained from germinated and ungerminated seeds flour was hydrolyzed with Alcalase(R) at enzyme/substrate ratio (E/S) 1/10 and during 0.5 and 2.0 h, respectively. On the other hand, protein concentrate obtained from ungerminated (E/S: 1/10) and germinated (E/S: 1/50) seeds flour was sequentially hydrolyzed with Pepsin-Pancreatin during 1.0 and 3.0 h, respectively. Peptide fractions with ACE inhibitory activity in a range of 0.9 to 3.8 µg/mL were obtained by G-50 gel filtration chromatography and high- performance liquid chromatography C18 reverse phase chromatography. The observed amino acid composition suggests a substantial contribution of hydrophobic residues to the peptides’ inhibitory potency, which potentially acts via blocking of angiotensin II production. These results show that P. lunatus seed proteins are a potential source of ACE inhibitory peptides when hydrolyzed with Alcalase(R) and Pepsin-Pancreatin.
