Popis: This study investigated the antioxidant capacity of fenugreek protein isolate and its improvement by Lc. lactis fermentation through bioactive peptides production and the effect of molecular weight variation on fenugreek fractions antioxidant activity. Fenugreek protein isolate showed a significant increase of antioxidant and radical scavenging activity after 24 h of fermentation, by about 23.7, 42.9 and 40% for respectively antioxidant activity coefficient AAC, DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity. FI fermentation led to a hydrolysis of peptide bands with MW > 35 kDa and a generation of new bands with a MW
