Abstract

Protein from Spirulina is an alternative protein with abundant bioactive peptides that benefit human health, such as antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antihypertensive, anti-obesity, etc. Therefore, protein hydrolysate from Spirulina has functional properties that can be applied to healthy food products. In addition, protein hydrolysates have nutritional benefits for consumers and suitable techno-functional properties for processing manufacturers. Previous articles have reported protein and application from Spirulina, which was non-hydrolysed. In this review, we compiled information related to protein hydrolysate that covered the importance of protein hydrolysate, culture process, harvesting, and hydrolysis protein, including illustrated examples of case studies in the current application of protein hydrolysates from Spirulina microalgae.
