Recovery and Bioactivities of Pacific Dulse Protein and Its Hydrolysates

摘要

Pacific dulse ( ) is a protein-rich red algae cultivated in the Pacific Northwest, originally as aquaculture feed and now expanding to human consumption. Our previous work showed that the dietary supplementation of dulse exerts anti-inflammatory effects using an obese murine model. This study aims to optimize dulse protein recovery and asses their bioactivities that may be associated to the earlier observation.
