Alcalase was used to hydrolyze plaice skin for preparing collagen peptide, and the superoxide anion radical scavenging activity of this collagen peptide was studied. Effect of the different enzymatic hydrolysis conditions on superoxide anion radical scavenging activity were analyzed by single factor experiment and response surface method. The optimal hydrolytic conditions of plaice skin collagen using Alcalase with high scavenging rate were pH=9.5, enzyme dosage 1581 U/g, concentration of substrate 10 mg/mL, hydrolysis time 6 h，temperature 60℃. The maximum scavenging rate of 75.51% and half scavenging concentration (IC50) of 7.98 mg/mL were obtained.
