Marine-derived protein hydrolysates properties

Discarded fish bones and cutoffs may contain considerable amounts of muscle proteins. These muscle proteins are nutritionally valuable and easily digestible with well-balanced amino acid composition (Venugopal et al., 1996). Therefore, fish proteins derived from seafood processing by-products can be hydrolyzed enzymatically to recover protein. Protein hydrolysates from several marine species have been analyzed for their nutritional and functional properties, and researches have mainly explored the possibility of obtaining biologically active peptides (Benkajul and Morrissey, 1997). Moreover, skipjack tuna muscle (Kohama et al., 1988), sardine muscle (Bougatef et al., 2008), and shark meat (Wu et al., 2008) have been used to separate potential peptides. [Pg.238]

Food materials, including fish, contain the precursors to these bioactive peptides, which can be formed in vitro or in vivo by enzymatic hydrolysis (Korhonen and Pihlanto 2003). During the past decade, a number of studies have reported on the many physiological properties of these bioactive peptides. The aim of this review is to describe the production of novel peptides derived from marine protein hydrolysates, elucidating the underlying mechanisms of physiological and biofunctional activity that are particular to individual bioactive peptides. The general sources and production of protein hydrolysates will be discussed, followed by a discussion of the nutraceutical properties of protein hydrolysates and their associated bioactive peptides. [Pg.492]

Interestingly, a marine-derived peptide product called Stabilium 200 has been reported to reduce anxiety in humans and to improve memory and learning performances in both rats and humans. Stabilium 200 is a derivative of the commercial product PC 60, which is a mixture of fish protein hydrolysates from mainly cod and mackerel. Bernet et al. (2000) reported that the marine-derived Gabolysat PC 60 showed anxiolytic properties by exhibiting diazepam-like effects on stress responsiveness of the rat pituitary-adrenal system and sympathoadrenal activity. [Pg.512]
