Antioxidative peptide generated in goat milk dadih (Indonesian fermented milk)

Abstract

　Dadih is a traditional Indonesian fermented buffalo milk product prepared in bamboo tubes that has physiological and functional properties, including antioxidant activity. Although dadih made from both buffalo and cow milk has been widely studied, few studies have investigated dadih made from goat milk. In this study, we investigated the functional properties of goat milk dadih, with a specific focus on its antioxidative peptides. Our findings indicated that goat milk dadih fermented for 48 h showed high antioxidative activity. Furthermore, a novel antioxidative peptide (Gly-Met) generated in goat milk dadih was identified.
