Bioactive Peptide Tempe Made from Mucuna pruriens (L) DC as an Inhibitor of Angiotensin-I-Converting Enzyme (ACE) in a Digestion Simulation

Mucuna pruriens (L) DC tempe is a food that functions as an inhibitor of the angiotensin-I-converting enzyme (ACE). The purpose of this research was to study the activity of M. pruriens tempe peptides during the digestive process in vitro with pepsin-pancreatin, and absorption of peptides in the small intestine using the inverted intestinal sac method. Our results show that M. pruriens had the highest ACE-inhibiting activity after digestion in...
