Popis: This study investigated the changes of tocopherols and B vitamins in raw peanuts as a result of protease treatment which was used to reduce peanut allergens. Raw peanut kernels were treated with Alcalase, bromelain, Neutrase and papain separately at different concentrations, vacuum dried, and then ground into paste. The paste was defatted using hexane containing 0.02% BHT to obtained crude oil and defatted peanut flour which were used for tocopherol and B-vitamin analysis, respectively. The protease treatment significantly reduced the contents of all tocopherols and B-vitamins in the peanuts in enzyme concentration-dependent manner (P
