ABSTRAK
Dalam era kesihatan moden, pendekatan terhadap
diet telah berubah daripada sekadar memenuhi keperluan pemakanan asas kepada
menyokong fungsi fisiologi dan mencegah penyakit kronik. Peptida bioaktif ialah
serpihan protein yang memberikan kesan positif terhadap fungsi badan, sekali
gus menyumbang kepada peningkatan tahap kesihatan manusia. Sumber peptida
bioaktif merangkumi pelbagai bahan makanan daripada haiwan, tumbuhan dan sumber marin
yang menghasilkan peptida dengan aktiviti biologi seperti antihipertensi,
antioksidan, antimikrob dan antikanser. Peptida ini tersembunyi dalam struktur
protein induk dan hanya dapat diaktifkan melalui proses hidrolisis. Dua
pendekatan utama yang lazim digunakan untuk membebaskan peptida bioaktif
daripada struktur protein induk ialah hidrolisis enzim dan fermentasi mikrob.
Hidrolisis enzim melibatkan pemecahan ikatan peptida oleh enzim proteolitik
seperti alkalase, pepsin dan tripsin. Sebaliknya, fermentasi mikrob menggunakan
mikroorganisma seperti bakteria, kulat filamen dan yis untuk menghasilkan enzim
secara semula jadi yang memecahkan protein kepada peptida bioaktif. Peptida
bioaktif kini semakin mendapat perhatian dalam pembangunan produk makanan fungsian,
nutraseutikal dan farmaseutikal kerana keupayaannya menyokong kesihatan
secara menyeluruh. Walau bagaimanapun, pelbagai cabaran masih perlu diatasi,
termasuk isu berkaitan rasa pahit, ketulenan, kestabilan dan keberkesanan dalam
sistem tubuh manusia. Tinjauan ini menekankan potensi besar peptida bioaktif
sebagai komponen utama dalam pembangunan makanan generasi baharu, namun penyelidikan lanjut masih diperlukan bagi mengoptimumkan kaedah penghasilan,
proses pemurnian serta aplikasinya secara mampan dan berkesan dalam sistem fisiologi
manusia.
Kata kunci: Fermentasi mikrob; hidrolisis
enzim; peptida bioaktif; sumber makanan
Abstract
In the modern health era, the
approach to diet has shifted from merely fulfilling basic nutritional needs to
supporting physiological functions and preventing chronic diseases. Bioactive
peptides are protein fragments that exert positive effects on bodily functions,
thereby contributing to improved human health. Sources of bioactive peptides
encompass a wide range of food materials derived from animals, plants, and
marine sources, which produce peptides with various biological activities such as
antihypertensive, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer properties. These
peptides are embedded within the structure of parent proteins and can only be
activated through hydrolysis processes. The two main approaches commonly used
to release bioactive peptides from the parent protein structure are enzymatic
hydrolysis and microbial fermentation. Enzymatic hydrolysis involves the
cleavage of peptide bonds by proteolytic enzymes such as alcalase, pepsin, and
trypsin. In contrast, microbial fermentation employs microorganisms such as
bacteria, filamentous fungi, and yeasts to naturally produce enzymes that break
down proteins into bioactive peptides. Bioactive peptides are increasingly
gaining attention in the development of functional foods, nutraceuticals, and
pharmaceuticals due to their ability to support overall health. Nevertheless,
various challenges remain to be addressed, including issues related to
bitterness, purity, stability, and efficacy in the human body. This review
highlights the significant potential of bioactive peptides as key components in
the development of next-generation food products. However, further research is
needed to optimise their production methods, purification processes, and
sustainable and effective application in human physiological systems.
Keywords: Bioactive peptides;
