본 연구는 단백질분해효소로 whey protein을 가수분해하여 얻은 가수분해물의 용해도와 유화특성의 변화를 측정하기 위해 실시하였다. Whey protein concentrates를 porcine trypsin(E : S=1 ; 3,000)으로 pH 8.0, 37$^{\circ}C$에서 6시간 동안 가수분해한 whey protein 가수분해물의 유화활성은 분해 4시간째에 가장 높게 나타났으며, 이 때 가수분해도는 5.50%이었다. whey protein의 효소가수분해로 whey protein 중의 $\alpha$-lactalbumin은 분해가 잘 일어나지 않으나 $\beta$-lactoglobulin은 분해 초기부터 급속히 분해되며 유화력 상승에 관여하는 여 러개의 저분자량 peptide를 생성하였다. 가수분해물의 용해도는 가수분해시간이 지남에 따라 증가세를 보이다가 5시간부터 조금씩 감소 추세를 보였으며, pH에 따라서는 등전점 부근인 pH4~5에서 용해도가 가장 낮았으나 가수분해시간이 증가함에 따라 이 부근의 용해도가 현저히 증가하였으며 pH 6이상에서는 pH가 증가함에 따라 용해도도 증가하였다. 유화활성은 용해도의 결과와 거의 비슷한 결과를 나타내었다. 유화 안정성은 분해시간이 지남에 따라 조금씩 증가함을 보여주었으나, 가수분해 4시간부터 pH 8 이상의 PH에서 급격한 증자를 나타내었다.

Background: Sarcopenia, defined as loss of muscle mass and strength with age, becomes a public health concern as the elderly population increases. This study aimed to determine whether the mixture of soluble whey protein hydrolysate (WPH) and Panax ginseng berry extract (GBE) has a synergetic effect on sarcopenia and, if so, to identify the relevant mechanisms and optimal mixing ratio. Methods: In the first experiment, C57BL/6 mice were hindlimb immobilized for one-week and then administered WPH 800 mg/kg, GBE 100 mg/kg, WPH 800 mg/kg+ GBE 100 mg/kg mixture, and Fructus Schisandrae extract (SFE) 200 mg/kg for two weeks. In the second experiment, experimental design was same, but mice were administered three different doses of WPH and GBE mixture (WPH 800 mg/kg+ GBE 100 mg/kg, WPH 800 mg/kg+ GBE 90 mg/kg, WPH 1000 mg/kg+ GBE 75 mg/kg). Results: In the first experiment, we confirmed the synergetic effect of WPH and GBE on muscle mass and identified that GBE was more effective on the protein synthesis side, and WPH tended to be slightly more effective for protein degradation. In the second experiment, among three different ratios, the WPH 800 mg/kg+ GBE 100 mg/kg was most effective for muscle mass and strength. The mixtures activated muscle protein synthesis via PI3K/Akt/mTORc1 pathway and inhibited muscle protein degradation via suppressing ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy-lysosome system (ALS), and these effects were more GBE dose-dependent than WPH. Conclusion: The WPH and GBE mixture having a synergetic effect is a potential agent to prevent sarcopenia.

A nutritional supplement was developed aiming at correcting the most common nutrient and caloric deficiencies encountered in elderly people (${\geq}60$ years old). The protein source was a mixture of whey protein isolates (WPI) and bovine collagen hydrolysate (BCH) with high nutritional and functional qualities making up 12% of the formulation. The carbohydrate fraction was composed of sucrose, inulin (soluble fiber), and fructo-oligosaccharide (prebiotic). The most commonly deficient essential minerals and vitamins were also included. Acceptance of the product was good according to both an elderly panel and a laboratory panel composing of both sexes and various ages. The stability of the formulations was evaluated and the estimated shelf life at room temperature (ca. $27^{\circ}C$) was approximately 4 months.
