Abstract:Food-derived peptides and polyphenols have demonstrated antioxidant activities against reactive oxygen species and free radicals. However, little is known about their combined antioxidant capacity when they interact within a mixture. This study investigated the antioxidant capacity of a mixture of flavonoids (quercetin or rutin) and pea protein-derived pentapeptide (VNRFR) in vitro and in vivo using the Caenorhabditis elegans model. Dynamic light scattering, spectroscopic, and molecular docking analysis reveal… Show more
