Multi-layer encapsulation of pumpkin (Cucurbita maxima L.) seed protein hydrolysate and investigating its release and antioxidant activity in simulated gastrointestinal digestion
Because of their high protein content, easy access and low cost, pumpkin seeds are a valuable raw material for the preparation of antioxidant protein hydrolysates.Micro-coating is an effective method to protect bioactive compounds against destruction.In order to strengthen the alginate hydrogel network loaded with pumpkin seed protein hydrolysate (
