Extraction optimization and amino acid analysis of edible dock protein
Edible dock is a new food raw material with high protein content,in order to explore the applica-tion value of edible dock protein,the basic components of edible dock were determined,including crude protein,crude starch,crude fat,water and ash.The extracted crude protein was scanned by UV-VIS full wavelength and the isoelectric point was determined.Edible dock protein was extracted by alkali extraction and acid precipitation method.The effects of pH(8,9,10,11,and 12),solid-liquid ratio(1∶15,1∶20,1∶25,1∶30,and 1∶35 g/mL),extraction temperature(30,35,40,45,and 50 ℃)and extraction time(15,20,25,30,and 35 min)on the yield of edible dock protein were investigated by single factor experi-ment.The response surface experiment was designed by Box Behnken,and the pH,solid-liquid ratio and extraction temperature were selected as indexes.The influence of the three indexes on the yield of edible dock protein was as follows:B(pH)>A(solid-liquid ratio)>C(extraction temperature),and the influ-ence of the interaction of all indexes on the protein yield was as follows:BC>AB>AC.The molecular weight of edible dock protein was determined by electrophoresis with sodium dodecyl sulfate and polyacryl-amide(SDS-PAGE).The amino acid composition of the protein was determined and analyzed by amino acid analyzer.The results showed that the protein content of edible dock could reach about 30%,and the yield was 101.33 mg/g under the conditions of solid-liquid ratio 1∶25 g/mL,extraction solution pH10.0 and extraction temperature 40.0 ℃.Electrophoresis image showed 3 bands near 55.2,40.8 and 15.6 kDa,and the highest concentration was near 55.2 kDa.The amino acid composition analysis of edible dock pro-tein showed that the content of glutamic acid and aspartate was higher;the content of cystine and methio-nine was lower.The essential amino acids accounted for 44.42%of the total amino acids.The amino acids of edible dock protein are complete,the pattern is good,and the nutritional value is high.This study can provide a certain theoretical basis for the supplement of human dietary protein.
