On the possibility of obtaining high-quality lyophilized collagen hydrolysate and its applicability in the sausage production

Abstract

The paper discusses the issues of rational use of secondary collagen-containing raw material in the food industry, namely cattle by-products. The technology of obtaining collagen hydrolysate from this type of raw material with the subsequent freeze-drying is proposed, which maximizes the level of preservation of native properties and the expands the scope of its application. The paper presents the stages of obtaining lyophilized collagen hydrolysate by biomodification of frozen cattle lips and ears. The preparation of lyophilized collagen hydrolysate was carried out as follows: the lips and ears were preliminary washed in running tap water for 20 minutes in order to remove mucus and impurities, muscle and adipose tissue was also removed; after draining (15-20 minutes), the raw material was ground on a top with a grid diameter of 2-3 mm. At the next stage, the crushed lips and ears were treated with a solution of Protepsin enzyme preparation in the ratio of the raw material to solution 1:2 and kept for 0.5-1.5 hours at a concentration of the enzyme preparation of 0.06% by weight of the raw material, while stirring periodically (at 17-22 °C). The filtrate from the product was separated on a sieve. Processed as described above, the raw material was subjected to freeze-drying. Evaluation of the temperature and duration of freeze-drying of collagen hydrolysate was carried out at a drying layer thickness of 5.0 mm and different drying temperatures: 20 °C, 30 °C, 40 °C, and 50 °C.

Adição de fibra de colágeno na elaboração de sorvete cremoso

“…O principal componente do tecido conjuntivo é o colágeno, grupo de proteínas fibrosas que é obtido de tecidos musculares e conjuntivos de animais. O colágeno possui propriedades de fibra alimentar e que pode melhorar o metabolismo do corpo humano (Lukin, 2020). Dentro de sua classificação podemos encontrar a fibra de colágeno que é obtida das camadas internas do couro bovino através de processo químico (tratamento alcalino com hidróxido de cálcio), segue para o desengorduramento e secagem a baixas temperaturas (Santana et al, 2012).…”
