Silkworm (Bombyx mori) pupae is a by-product from the silk industry which is rich in protein. Hydrolysates from silkworm pupae generated using Alcalase®, Prolyve®, Flavourzyme® and Brewers Clarex® proteolytic prepa- rations were characterised. The antioxidant activity of the hydrolysates was investigated using in vitro antioxi- dant assays and...
