Impact Of Microwave-Assisted Heating And Enzymatic Treatment On Functional And Antioxidant Properties Of Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus Mykiss) By-Product Hydrolysates, Elizabeth Bich Hang Nguyen

Open Access Theses

Fish protein hydrolysates (FPH) have been widely used as a mean to better utilize fishery by-products through the use of proteolytic enzymes to produce a wide range of functional peptides that can be used as food ingredients. Studies have shown that these functional peptides have enhanced interface-stabilizing properties (e.g. functionality) and antioxidant activity. FPH production can be accelerated by using rapid heating methods (e.g. microwave) compared to slower conventional heating (CH). The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of microwave heating (MW) during enzymatic hydrolysis on functionality and antioxidant properties of FPH. Treatments consisted of adding Alcalase™ …
