Food-derived Bioactive Peptides : Green Preparation, Activity Mechanisms, and Health Applications

Explore the benefits and applications of foodborne bioactive peptidesFood-Derived Bioactive Peptides: Green Preparation, Activity Mechanisms, and Health Applications explains the uses and benefits of bioactive peptides derived from food sources. Authored by leading researchers at Fuzhou University with extensive expertise in functional foods and biotechnology, this book provides food scientists and industry professionals with detailed insights into these health-promoting compounds. It systematically covers their sources, preparation methods, activity evaluation, functional mechanisms, and practical applications. The book explores nine major peptide classifications including antifreeze, antioxidant, antimicrobial, metal chelate, anti-ageing, anti-fatigue, immune regulatory, flavor, and self-assembling peptides. Each chapter thoroughly covers sources, evaluation methods, mechanisms, security assessment, applications, and limitations. A final chapter examines AI integration in functional peptides research,

working in functional food and nutraceutical industries. It combines rigorous academic foundations with practical guidance for developing innovative health-promoting products and advancing sustainable food applications. [Publisher's Text]
