Synthesis, extraction and idetification of meat bioactive peptides: a review

Abstract

The consumption of meat should consider the concept of functional food. The meat had a highquality protein and contain of bioactive peptide compounds. Amino acid was component of bioactive peptides compound. It joined by covalent bonds known as amide or peptide bonds. A lot of research was currently focused on the bioactive peptide compounds isolated from myofibril and sarcoplasmic proteins with the synthesis, extraction, and identification methods. This study used a systematic review to get the structure of amino acids that the source of bioactive components and the principle of synthesis, extraction and identification of bioactive peptide in the meat. This paper highlights were finding on the structure of amino acid in the meat. The proportion of amino acids was also different in each animal body location. The result identified that more than 170 peptides were released from the main structure of the myofibril (actin, myosin) and sarcoplasmic muscle proteins, and the synthesis, extraction and bioactive peptide identification in the meat as well as their potential use as functional food.
