Four types of cheeses were prepared included plain- cheese (control), Codonopsis pilosula (CP)- cheese, plain- cheese with fish collagen (FC; control) and CP- cheese with FC. The effects of cheese samples on acidification, proteolysis of milk proteins using three methods (cadmium-ninhydrin method, O-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) assay, and electrophoresis assay), and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory activity were investigated during 0, 2, & 4 weeks of ripening. In addition, the sensory evaluation was also investigated during 0, 2, 4, & 8 weeks of ripening. The presence of FC in CP- cheese increased the numbers of free amino acids (FAA) at 0 and 2 weeks. The addition of CP both in the presence and absence of FC affected positively (p
