Abstract: The invention relates to the production of bioactive products that are derived from milk proteins for the production of bioactive milk products derived from milk proteins, particularly caseins. The 16 inventive peptides can be obtained chemically, biotechnologically or by means of enzymatic treatment from proteins containing same and give rise to peptides with an antimicrobial activity, an in vitro angiotensin converter inhibitor activity and/or antihypertensive activity and/or antioxidant activity. Said nutraceutical products are suitable for use in the food and pharmaceutical industries, both in the form of a hydrolyzate or bioactive peptides.

Abstract: The invention relates to the production of ovoproducts containing bioactive peptides from the egg white subjected to enzymatic treatment. Said peptides have an inhibiting activity of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE inhibiting activity) in vitro and/or anti-hypertensive activity in rats and/or antioxidant activity. Said ovoproducts, complete hydrolyzates, the fractions thereof with low molecular weight or their constituent peptides could be used as therapeutic substances with ACE inhibiting activity and/or anti-hypertensive activity and/or anti-oxidant activity, either as functional food products, food additives or ingredients or pharmaceutical products for the treatment and/or prevention of hypertension in all its forms in humans or animals and for the treatment and/or prevention of any disorder associated with hypertension in humans or animals.
