X Abstract

Muscle tissue from the spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias) was enzymatically hydrolysed using a bacterial endopeptidase. The influence of the process variables (temperature, pH, enzyme/ substrate ratio and reaction time) was investigated with regards to the extent of proteolytic degra dation and the recovery of soluble nitrogen from the substrate. Maximum significant nitrogen recovery (NR) was found to be 76.2%, in a 2 h proteolytic reaction. Optimum conditions were 55 degreesC, pH 8.0 and an enzyme/substrate ratio of 40 mg enzyme/g minced shark muscle (wet weight basis). Under these conditions, a degree of hydrolysis (DH) of 18.6% was obtained. A linear corre lation (R2 = 0.99) was found to exist between the two measured parameters, NR and DH.
