Protein Bioconversion—Marine Derived Peptides

The utilization of fish protein hydrolysates as sauce or flavor compounds has a long utilization history in different cultures and today there is a renewed interest to incorporate fish protein hydrolysates in food formulations as additional supplements. Fish frames, resulting from filleting operations, and other fish discards contain considerable amounts of muscle protein. A need for effective utilization of fish re- 

Fish protein hydrolysates have a proven record as fertilizers in plants. Their effectiveness as fertilizers has been linked to their fa- 

Chitin and its derivatives are natural, nontoxic, biodegradable polymers with a broad range of commercial properties and applications. Although these biopolymers can be used in various industrial fields, this chapterfocuses on the use of chitin derivatives in the functional foods and dietary supplement industries. Many studies have reported the im-muno-modulatory effects in the form of antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticarcinogenic, or antiulcer activity [186-188] and found that chitosan derivatives are nonallergenic, so the body is not
