Protein Digestion-Derived Peptides 1st Edition
Capture the cutting edge of food-protein research with Protein Digestion-Derived Peptides, 1st Edition by Cristina Martinez-Villaluenga and Blanca Hernandez-Ledesma. This authoritative volume brings together the latest science on how digestion transforms dietary proteins into peptides with measurable biological activities—essential reading for anyone working at the intersection of food science, nutrition, and health.
Explore clear, evidence-based coverage of key topics: gastrointestinal and simulated digestion models, enzymatic hydrolysis, peptide absorption and bioavailability, advanced analytical approaches (including chromatographic and mass-spectrometric techniques), and functional assays for antioxidant, antihypertensive, immunomodulatory and microbiome-modulating activities. Practical insights link laboratory findings to real-world applications in functional foods, nutraceuticals, clinical nutrition and regulatory contexts.
Written by leading experts and edited by Martinez-Villaluenga and Hernandez-Ledesma, this book balances rigorous scholarship with practical relevance. Case studies and comparative reviews help readers interpret experimental results and design studies that advance product development or clinical research. Whether you are a food scientist, nutritionist, biochemist, clinician, or graduate student, you’ll find guidance to translate peptide research into innovation and public-health impact.
Globally relevant—appealing to professionals across Europe, North America, Latin America and Asia—this edition supports multidisciplinary collaboration and evidence-based product development. Easy to navigate and richly referenced, it’s the definitive resource on protein digestion-derived peptides.
