A comprehensive review of fish protein hydrolysates targeting pet food formulat...
Ribeiro, Tânia Bragança; Maia, Margarida R. G.; Fonseca, António J. M.; Marques, Bianca; Caleja, Cristina; Rosa, Ana; Martins, Rui; Almeida, AndréThe 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...

Influence of different processing techniques on microalgal protein extraction
Moreira, Catarina; Santos, Pedro Miguel Ferreira; Nunes, R.; Carvalho, Bernardo; Pereira, Hugo; Teixeira, J. A.; Rocha, Cristina M. R.The nutrient-rich composition of microalgae biomass positions it as a highly promising natural food ingredient. This holds the potential to not only enhance the nutritional value of various food products but also simultaneously alter their structural attributes. This work investigated the effect of five protein extraction techniques such as freeze-thawing, enzymatic-assisted extraction, high-pressure homogeniza...
Bioconversion of vine shoots into renewable products using ohmic heating extrac...
Cardoza, Diego; Dias, Joana Sofia Gomes; Pereira, Sara Gonçalves; Romero, Inmaculada; Castro, Eulogio; Rocha, Cristina M. R.The valorization of vine shoots (VS), a lignocellulosic waste from the viticulture industry, was evaluated using different alternative and sustainable extraction processes. An innovative biorefinery approach, sequentially combining ohmic heating extraction (OHE) and autohydrolysis (AH), was selected for the extraction of nutraceutical compounds and bioethanol production. Overall, the use of both technologies im...
Solubilization and hydrolysis of porcine coagulated blood protein using sub-cri...
Marques, Bianca; Nunes, Rafaela; Araújo-Rodrigues, Helena; Pintado, Manuela; Pereira, Ricardo N.; Teixeira, José A.; Rocha, Cristina M. R.Pork represents a major fraction of the meat consumed worldwide but only 30% of the blood generated in slaughterhouses is re-used as raw material for food and feed. Innovative technologies and efficient processing strategies capable of generating added-value products from it are now attracting attention. In this study, the hydrolysis of porcine coagulated blood using sub-critical solvent extraction was investig...
Life cycle assessment and cost analysis of innovative agar extraction technolog...
Pereira, Sara Gonçalves; Martins, António A.; Mata, Teresa M.; Pereira, Ricardo Nuno Correia; Teixeira, J. A.; Rocha, Cristina M. R.Developing efficient and sustainable extraction technologies for valuable biocompounds from seaweed is crucial to overcome the limitations of conventional technologies. This study aims to compare three innovative technologies for agar extraction from two red seaweed species, G. sesquipedale and G. vermiculophylla: subcritical water extraction (performed at 125°C, 2.5atm, 1min, and at 140°C, 3.8atm, 1s), moderat...

Enzymatic approach for the extraction of bioactive fractions from red, green an...
Teixeira-Guedes, Catarina; Gomes-Dias, Joana S.; Cunha, Sara A.; Pintado, Manuela E.; Pereira, Ricardo N.; Teixeira, José A.; Rocha, Cristina M. R.Although several enzymatic approaches have been applied with this intent, the sequential use of enzymes covering both cellulolytic and proteolytic activity has never been performed in seaweeds. Sequential use of these enzymes improved the overall extraction yield by up to 160%, 30% and 80% in the different seaweeds when compared to the control condition (water extraction), use of a carbohydrases’ cocktail alone...
Circular economy challenges in bioresources valorization - the role of microorg...
Rocha, Cristina M. R.ln a world that is expected to face acute resource shortage in the near future, exploring the possibility of fully using the available biomass and significantly improving the recovery of relevant nutrients/compounds are strategies of the utmost importance. Holistic strategies supporting a circular economy, enabling the sustainable and efficient use of available feedstocks, while targeting minimal environmental ...
