Journal ArticleDOI
Krill for Human Consumption: Nutritional Value and Potential Health Benefits
TL;DR: Antioxidant levels in krill are higher than in fish, suggesting benefits against oxidative damage, and the waste generated by the processing of krill into edible products can be developed into value-added products.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutritional value, bioactive compounds and health benefits of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.)
TL;DR: In this paper, the composition and nutritional value of different lettuce types were summarized, which can help growers and consumers choose lettuce types with higher nutritional benefits, such as fiber, iron, folate, and vitamin C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extraction and characterisation of lipids from Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba)
TL;DR: Based on the extraction efficiency and composition of the extracted oil, the one-step extraction using 1:12 krill:solvent ratio is recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional and nutritional characteristics of proteins and lipids recovered by isoelectric processing of fish by-products and low-value fish: A review
TL;DR: Isoelectric solubilisation/precipitation (ISP) allows efficient recovery of fish proteins and oil which retain functionality and nutritional value of food products and selective protein recovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of the nutritional value, protein quality and safety of krill protein concentrate isolated using an isoelectric solubilization/precipitation technique
TL;DR: KPC appears to be a promising protein source for human consumption with the advantage of being a rich source of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFAs).
