Functional and bioactive properties of collagen and gelatin from alternative sources: A review

TL;DR: The present work is a compilation of recent information on collagen and gelatin extraction from new sources, as well as new processing conditions and potential novel or improved applications, many of which are largely based on induced cross-linking, blending with other biopolymers or enzymatic hydrolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Collagen and gelatin.

TL;DR: The current understanding of the structure, bioactivities, and biological effects of collagen, gelatin, and gelatin hydrolysates as well as their most recent applications are covered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antihypertensive peptides from animal products, marine organisms, and plants.

TL;DR: It is assumed that low molecular weight peptides have a greater ACE inhibition because lower molecular weight amino acids have a higher absorbency in the body and the effect is closely related with the degree of enzymatic hydrolysis and the composition of the peptide sequence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioactive peptides and depsipeptides with anticancer potential: sources from marine animals.

TL;DR: The immense potential of marine animals as bioactive peptide sources, since they have been found as secondary metabolites from sponges, ascidians, tunicates, and mollusks, is demonstrated.

Squid gelatin hydrolysates with antihypertensive, anticancer and antioxidant activity

TL;DR: Gelatin obtained from giant squid inner and outer tunics was hydrolyzed by seven commercial proteases (Protamex, Trypsin, Neutrase, Savinase, NS37005, Esperase and Alcalase) to produce bioactive hydrolysates as discussed by the authors.
