Harnessing proteins from less valued fish species holds the potential to enhance the functional value of the resulting products. As highlighted by Chalamaiah et al., the production of fish protein hydrolysate (FPH) is widely acknowledged as a significant method for obtaining protein and bioactive peptides. Fish protein hydrolysate (FPH) is the result of breaking down fish proteins into shorter peptide fragments containing two to twenty amino acids. This breakdown occurs through the process of hydrolysis, which can be facilitated by enzymes, acids, or bases. The production of FPH is primarily accomplished through the action of protease enzymes, either supplemented or endogenous enzymes sourced from the raw materials. In the classical process of extracting bioactive peptides, quinoa protein hydrolysate is initially hydrolyzed to generate peptides, using either enzymes or microbial fermentation. After that, the biological activity of the entire hydrolysate is developed.
