Characterization, Preparation, and Purification of Marine Bioactive Peptides

Marine bioactive peptides, as a source of unique bioactive compounds, are the focus of current research. They exert various biological roles, some of the most crucial of which are antioxidant activity, antimicrobial activity, anticancer activity, antihypertensive activity, anti-inflammatory activity, and so forth, and specific characteristics of the bioactivities are described. This review also...

Optimization, Partial Purification, and Characterization of Bioactive Peptides of Lactobacillus paracasei Isolated from Traditional Egyptian Cheese

Background: Bacteriocins are small peptides which are ribosomally synthesized and have been shown to have wide range of antimicrobial activity. The aim of this study was to optimize the production of L. paracasei MG847589 bacteriocin. Furthermore, the potential antibacterial properties of the novel bacteriocins were characterized and evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus. Methods: The presen...

Bioactive peptides— large-scale preparation

Several scientific studies have revealed that ingestion of some enzymatic hydrolysates of food proteins, namely, mixtures of peptides, produces various beneficial activities beyond basic nutritional values. Moderation of hypertension and hyperlipidemia is considered as one of these beneficial effects. The emerging market for nutraceuticals and functional foods is stimulating the production of e...

Preparation and characterization of fluorapatite-bioactive glass S53P4 nanocomposite

This research has been done to study characteristic and biocompatible evaluation of a nano-biocompositeceramic with the bioglass (BG) as a first phase. In this regard, synthesis of S53P4 (53% SiO2, 4% P2O5,23% Na2O and 20% CaO) bioglass has been considered as the first phase and flourapatite (FA) consideredas the second phase. Afterwards, nanocomposite with the base of S53P4 b...
