Equine milk has important nutritional and therapeutic properties that can benefit the diet of
the elderly, convalescent or newborn. The protein content of equine milk is lower than that of …

Despite less explored than foods from animal origin, plant derived foods also contain
biologically active proteins and peptides. Bioactive peptides can be present as an …

This paper evaluates the safety for humans with regard to consumption of protein
hydrolysates and fractions thereof, including bioactive peptides. The available literature on …

In recent years, research on the production of active peptides obtained from milk and their
potential functionality has grown, to a great extent. Bioactive peptides have been defined as …

There is an increased desire for sophisticated foods, whereby consumers harbor higher
expectations of health-promoting benefits above basic nutrition. Moreover, there is a move …

Background The widespread application of protein-derived bioactive peptides (BAPs) with
health promoting properties in human nutrition is currently limited. This may be due to the …

Proteins are one of the primary components of the food, both in terms of nutrition and
function. They are main source of amino acids, essential for synthesis of proteins, and also …

The organic construct consumed as food comes packaged in units that carry the active
components and protect the entrapped active materials until delivered to targeted human …

This study was performed to develop a functional synbiotic yoghurt enriched with
Lactobacillus brevis KU200019 and fructooligosaccharides (FOS). The yoghurts were …

In their active forms, the organic structures become the packaging units and carriers of
nutrients intended for targeted delivery by nature, providing protection for the encapsulated …
