The influence of Cu2+, Fe2+ on the Maillard reaction were studied by heating L-ascorbic(ASA) and glycine (Gly) solutions adjusted to pH 5 at 120±2°C for 140 min in an oil bath. The presence of metals affected the intensity of browning and intermediate products, as monitored by absorbance at 420 nm and absorbance at 294 nm, sharply increased with the increase of metal concentrations applied (0.000M, 0.005M, 0.010M, 0.015M, 0.020M). Thereafter, slight increases were observed up to 0.020M. Antioxidative activity of all MRPs derived from ASA-Gly model systems sharply increased at 0.015M (P < 0.05) and slightly changes in activity were found with increasing metal concentrations up to 0.020M. Moreover, radical-scavenging activity correlated well with browning intensity and absorbance at 294 nm.

Maillard reaction products (MRPs) were prepared from porcine plasma protein hydrolysate (PPPH) and galactose model system, as a function of heating time. The pH value, absorbance at 294 and 420nm, fluorescence intensity, free amino group content, as well as reducing power, ABTS•+ scavenging activity and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity were determined. The results showed that, as heating time increased, the pH value and free amino group content of the sugar-PPPH conjugates were significantly decreased (P < 0.05); absorbance at 294 nm, browning products (A420 nm) and fluorescence intensity were significantly increased (P < 0.05); and the antioxidant activity of MRPs were significantly increased (P < 0.05) which indicated by reducing power, ABTS•+ scavenging activity and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity. In general, antioxidative activity of MRPs was coincidental with the browning development and the formation of intermediate products. MRPs from PPPH-galactose model system could be a potent antioxidant in food industry, which with a strong antioxidant activity, for scavenging free radicals and delaying deterioration due to oxidation.
