Chelators are valuable ingredients used to improve the oxidative stability of food emulsions. Caseins and casein peptides have phosphoseryl residues capable of binding transition metals. Thus, the ability of enriched caseinophosphopeptides to inhibit lipid oxidation in corn oil-in-water emulsions was investigated. Enriched caseinophosphopeptides (25 μM) inhibited the formation of lipid oxidation at both pH 3.0 and 7.0 as determined by lipid hydroperoxides and hexanal. Calcium (0−100 mM) had no influence on the antioxidant activity of the enriched caseinophosphopeptides. Casein hydrolysates were more effective inhibitors of lipid oxidation than the enriched caseinophosphopeptides at equal phosphorus content. Thus, antioxidant properties might not be uniquely attributed to chelating metals by phosphoseryl residues but also by scavenging free radicals. Overall, the observed antioxidant activity of casein hydrolysates means they could be utilized to decrease oxidative rancidity in foods.
