Production of protein hydrolysates from fish byproduct prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis
Journal Title: Aquaculture, Aquarium, Conservation & Legislation - International Journal of the Bioflux Society - Year 2012, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The objective of this research was to study the production of fish protein hydrolysate (FPH) from fish by-product prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis. Fish by-product were prepared using Alcalase and Flavourzyme enzyme and properties of FPH were analyzed. The results showed that FPH prepared using Alcalase enzyme had greater amount of protein (82.66%) than FPH prepared using Flavourzyme enzyme (73.51%). Solubility, emulsifying and foaming properties of FPH prepared using Alcalase were also better than those prepared using Flavourzyme enzyme. The FPH derived from fish by-product using enzyme may potentially serve as a good source of protein. It could be used as an emulsifier and as a foaming agent.
