About
Most of the blood from slaughterhouses is a waste management problem for this type of industry. This residual blood contains a large amount of components of interest and, therefore, can be used as raw material to generate products with high added value. To revalue the blood, hydrolysis processes are used to obtain peptides and amino acids. Chemical hydrolysis is currently used, but this process is not sustainable. This new enzymatic hydrolysis process makes it possible to obtain peptides that can be used as food additives with very beneficial properties.
