The pea sprouts are a promising source for the production of bioactive compounds that can be beneficial to human’s health. In this study the peptides were obtained from trypsin hydrolysate from pea sprouts proteins with antiradical and antihypertensive activity. ABTS∙+ was used to measure the antiradical capacities and ACE (angiotensin I-converting enzyme) inhibitory activity of peptides was determined. The protein hydrolysate was fractionated by ion exchange chromatography on DEAE cellulose. The highest activity was noted in the fist fraction (100 % antiradical activity for 0.2 mg/ml peptides concentration and IC50 value of 0.24 mg/ml for ACE inhibitory activity). Further, this fraction was purified by Sephadex G-15 where the highest antiradical activity was measured in the fourth fraction (28.68 %) and ACE inhibitory activity of peptides was IC50 0.007 mg/ml in the twelfth fraction. Results of this study indicate that enzymatic hydrolysates of pea sprouts protein possess potent antioxidative and antihypertensive activity.
