Abstract

A liquid fermentation process to bioconvert shrimp by-products was developed with two species of fungi, Boletus edulis and Suillus bovinus. Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory, antioxidant activities of bioconverted products and the deodorization effect of fungal bioconversion were determined. Two species of fungi could grow quickly in shrimp by-products medium and deodorize shrimp by-products. Bioconverted products had higher ACE inhibitory and antioxidant activities than control medium. Water extracts without crude polysaccharides from mycelia of B. edulis had the highest ACE inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.084 ± 0.011 mg/mL). Crude exopolysaccharides of B. edulis had higher antioxidant activity. Bioconversion with the fungus was proven to be a novel, practicable way to recycle shrimp by-products.
