'''Trypsin inhibitors''' (TI) inhibit the enzymatic activity of serine proteases and thus have nutritional effect. TI natural sources are bovine, ovomucoid, soybean, lima bean and other plants. '''Kunitz-type TI''' are found in legume seeds<ref>PMID:9466914</ref>. '''Bowman-Birk-type TI''' are found in legume and cereal grains seeds<ref>PMID:2446949</ref>.
