Tissues rely on collagen for structural and biological integrity, as well as for function and
strength. Several collagen sources have been investigated due to its wide variety of …

Hydrolyzed collagen (HC) is a group of peptides with low molecular weight (3–6 KDa) that
can be obtained by enzymatic action in acid or alkaline media at a specific incubation …

Collagen, an abundant extracellular matrix protein, has been found to have a lot of
pharmaceuticals, medicine, food, and cosmetics applications. Increased knowledge of …

Mostly, collagen is obtained from mammalian sources, but its use is limited because of high
cost and various allergic reactions. In this review, different alternative sources of collagen …

Over the last decade, numerous biopolymers have received more attention in medical
applications involving novel biomaterials because of their biocompatibility, biodegradability …

Collagen hydrolysates (peptides) derived from food processing byproducts have been used
to produce commercially valuable food ingredients due to their potential to trigger certain …

Biological materials found in living organisms, many of which are proteins, feature a
complex hierarchical organization. Type I collagen, a fibrous structural protein ubiquitous in …

Bioactive peptides are encrypted within the primary structure of food proteins where they
remain inactive until released by enzymatic hydrolysis. Once released from the parent …

Abstract Background Bioactive peptides (BPs) generated by hydrolysis of food proteins
exhibit a broad spectrum of biological properties (antihypertensive, hypocholesterolemic …

To obtain food-derived peptides with high ACE inhibitory activity, tilapia skin was pretreated
with steam explosion prior to enzymatic hydrolysis. The results showed that steam explosion …
