The fish industry generates significant amounts of fish by- and co-products (FBCPs) annually, projected to reach 160.8 million tonnes by 2030. This growth highlights the urgent need for sustainable FBCP management and an opportunity to improve the sector's environmental sustainability. Fish protein hydrolysates (FBCPHs) and bioactive peptides (BPs) derived from these FBCPs are gaining recognition in the pet foo...

Upcycling meat and fish by-products into bioactive protein hydrolysates promotes zero-waste practices within the circular bioeconomy and provides locally-sourced alternatives to replace fishmeal (FM) in aquafeeds. In this study, novel hydrolysates were developed from blue shark skin, fish by-products, and swine processed animal protein, aiming to reduce the high-quality FM inclusion in European seabass (Dicentr...
Omega -3 fatty acids (O3FA) are essential nutrients that play a crucial role in maintaining human and animal health. They are known for their numerous health claims, including cardiovascular benefits, contributing to both the prevention and treatment of immunological, neurological, reproductive, and cardiovascular complications, and supporting overall well-being. Fish, especially oily fish, comprise rich source...

Marine-derived collagen, particularly from blue shark (Prionace glauca) skin, represents a sustainable resource for the nutraceutical industry, yet its effective utilisation remains underexplored. This study aims to optimise the enzymatic hydrolysis of blue shark skin collagen using alcalase and bromelain to enhance the bioactive properties of the resultant hydrolysates. We employed a multifactorial experimenta...
Marine fisheries and aquaculture play a fundamental role in global food security, specifically with the rise in fish production and the United Nations' Sustainable Development Plan for 2030. However, fish processing generates significant by-products, including viscera, carcasses, heads, skin, and bones. Annually, over 20 million tons of fish tissue are discarded worldwide, accounting for about 70% of the total ...
