Abstract:Two types of the natural organic matter P and B were isolated from dried figs by gel permeation and high-performance liquid chromatography. The characterizations of their molecular structures were also performed using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry and infrared absorption spectrometry. As a result, these samples were revealed to inhibit the serine and cysteine proteinases chymotrypsin and papain (K(i) = 10(-)(6)-10(-)(4) M). The optimal inhibitory pH values of the P and B samples were observed to be approximately 5.5 and 5.0, respectively. The analyses of their UV-vis absorption spectra and infrared absorption spectra indicated that they would be a kind of humic substance. The mass spectrometry analyses showed that they possessed relatively small heterogeneous molecules with molecular masses around 692, 845, and 1389 Da for the P sample and around 551, 704, and 909 Da for the B sample.
