Value addition of oilseed meal: a focus on bioactive peptides
2018
Oilseed meal is a good source of nutritional components, especially proteins that gives a health promoting effect in humans. Many of the proteins and peptides in oilseed meal are biologically active. These peptides show various activities such as hypertensive, anti-oxidative, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and hypocholesterolemic. Therefore they are considered to be potential therapeutic agents in enhancing the human health. Moreover, they possess a great scope as prospective ingredients in food industry to improve the quality of consumer’s life. This review assesses the prospective of oilseed meal as a source of bioactive peptides. Also we describe the characteristics of various protein hydrosylates and bioactive peptides derived from oilseed meal in order to enhance the utility and profitability of oilseed meal.
