Whey Proteins and Bioactive Peptides: Advances in Production, Selection and Bioactivity Profiling

mycolabadmin

Whey, a liquid byproduct from cheese-making that was once considered waste, contains valuable proteins that can be broken down into smaller bioactive peptides. These peptides have numerous health benefits including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties, and can be used in functional foods and medicines. Researchers are developing advanced techniques to extract and produce these peptides more efficiently, and using computer models to predict which peptides will have specific health benefits.

Mushroom: an emerging source for next generation meat analogues

mycolabadmin

Mushrooms are emerging as excellent meat substitutes because they have a meaty, chewy texture and savory flavor similar to meat, while being nutritious, low in fat, and sustainable to grow. When added to meat products like sausages, burgers, and nuggets, mushrooms improve texture, extend shelf-life, and reduce spoilage. The growing shift toward plant-based eating combined with environmental concerns makes mushroom-based meat alternatives an attractive option for consumers seeking healthier and more sustainable food choices.
