Bioactives from Aquatic Side Streams, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Bioactives from Aquatic Side Streams: Innovative Extraction Procedures and Applications examines the untapped potential of aquatic resources and byproducts as a rich source of bioactive compounds, including proteins and peptides, omega-3 fatty acids, phenolic compounds, pigments, vitamins, and minerals. With a focus on sustainable practices, this book explores the identification, extraction, characterization, and application of these bioactive compounds across various industries. Early chapters characterize the bioactivity of key compounds, describe the aquatic side streams available for sourcing these compounds, and provide a high-level overview of their extraction techniques.

Central chapters focus on these processes for specific bioactive compounds, including hydrolysates, peptides, omega-3 oil, phospholipids, collagen, gelatin, chitin, chitosan, minerals, pigments, and more. Concluding chapters explore emerging techniques, market hurdles and possible solutions, and regulatory considerations for the sustainable sourcing of bioactive compounds from aquatic side streams. By equipping readers with the knowledge to develop new products that enhance existing ones, this book promotes the innovative use of aquatic byproducts for a more sustainable future.
