Figure 3.11. Emulsifying capacity of FPH obtained after different time of hydrolysis (15, 30, 45, 60, 120 and 130 min).<br />

Comparison of the chemical composition of selection several commercial <strong>fish</strong> powders<br />

(MariPep P, C and CK (all from Danish Fish Protein), Norland HFC (hydrolyzed <strong>fish</strong><br />

collagen), Aroma Powder (from New Zealand) and small scale produced FPH (fresh<br />

backbones from cod (Gadus morhua)) showed a relatively large variation among the samples<br />

tested. These variations affect the functional properties. The biggest difference between the<br />

powders was obtained in ash, the ash content was much higher for all MariPep (up till 20% in<br />

dw) powders compared to others (0.5-7.6% in dw) due to the high salt content in those<br />

<strong>products</strong>. The high salt content increases the stability of the powders which is desirable for<br />

the market. All the samples have rather low moisture content which might be positive for<br />

storage stability but might encourage lipid oxidation. DH of powders varied from 5 to 20%<br />

and this can also play important roles for functional and antioxidative properties. FPH made<br />

in the lab with a hydrolysis time of 50 minutes gave the highest DH of all tested powders,<br />

followed <strong>by</strong> MariPep powders and FPH with 20 minutes hydrolysis time. Norland had <strong>by</strong> far<br />

the lowest DH of the tested protein powders, but determination of molecular weight profiles<br />

<strong>by</strong> gel-filtration indicates that Aroma FPP consists of a larger amount of long peptides and<br />

fewer short ones. The molecular weight size distribution of the FPHs made in the laboratory<br />

showed some similarity to the MariPep powders, with one broad peak of quite long peptides,<br />

and some narrower peaks containing intermediate and shorter peptides. The Norland and<br />

Aroma powders also showed some similarities to each other, with one narrow peak containing<br />

a large proportion of long peptides, and one or more peaks containing some shorter peptides.<br />

Analysis of protein and peptides profiles indicated that powders consist of very different<br />

peptides and can be grouped into to three groups (based on the similarity on amount and size<br />
