The changes in the functional properties of trypsin from shrimps (Litopenaeus vannamei) after, Atmospheric Cold Plasma (ACP) treatments, have been evaluated in terms of enzyme inactivation, surface hydrophobicity, secondary structure, fluorescence intensity, and particle size distribution. Different exposure voltages of 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 kV at various treatment times (1, 2, 3, and 4 min) have been employed, in a separate assay. The results showed that trypsin-like protease activity decreased (by about 50%), and the kinetic constants Km value increased, while the kcat value decreased. Surface hydrophobicity and fluorescence intensity revealed a significant increase compared to the control sample. A high degree of protein degradation has been noticed by SDS-PAGE analysis. In addition, circular dichroism indicated that random coil and α-helix contents declined while β-turn and β-sheet contents have raised. A sharp drop in the particle size was observed with increasing the treatment voltage from 0 to 40 kV for 4 min, and the corresponding peak reached the minimum of 531.2 nm. Summing up the results, it can be concluded that the ACP technique effectively affects the activity of trypsin-like protease, which in terms enhances the quality of dietary protein.
