Objective To explore the antioxidant activity and stability of peptides from the visceral of Todarodes pacificus. Methods Free radical scavenging capacities of peptides from the visceral of Todarodes pacificus were determined, while the effects of temperature, pH and gastrointestinal digestion on the antioxidant activity of peptides from the visceral of Todarodes pacificus were also evaluated. Results The peptides from the visceral of Todarodes pacificus exhibited excellent free radical scavenging abilities, with half maximal inhibition concentration (IC50) values of 1.38, 15.26, 0.90 and 2.21 mg/mL for scavenging 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH), 2,2’-azino-bis(3- ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) cationic radicals, hydroxyl radicals, and superoxide anion radicals, respectively. The antioxidant activity of the peptides remained relatively stable within a temperature range of 25-100 °C. Under pH conditions of 7.0-8.0, their antioxidant activity showed no significant change (P>0.05), but it significantly decreased under strongly acidic or alkaline conditions (P<0.05). After in vitro simulated gastrointestinal digestion, the peptides still maintained strong antioxidant activity. Conclusion The peptides from the visceral of Todarodes pacificus has good antioxidant activity and stability, but it shall be noted that the processing and storage of its related products avoid the influence of high temperature and extreme acid-base conditions. The present research will open up new ways for the high-value utilization of the visceral of Todarodes pacificus resources and provide scientific guidance for the innovative development of natural antioxidant peptides.
