Impact of Fermentation on the Recovery of Antioxidant Bioactive Compounds from Sea Bass Byproducts

Abstract

The aim of the present research was to obtain antioxidant compounds through the fermentation of fish byproducts by bacteria isolated from sea bass viscera. To that purpose, bacteria from sea bass stomach, intestine, and colon were isolated. With the selected bacteria, growing research was undertaken, fermenting different broths prepared with sea bass meat or byproducts. After the fermentation, the antioxidant activity, phenolic acids, and some proteins were evaluated. The main phenolic acids obtained were DL-3-phenyl-lactic acid and benzoic acid at a maximum concentration of 466 and 314 ppb, respectively. The best antioxidant activity was found in the extracts obtained after the fermentation of fish byproducts broth by bacteria isolated from the colon (6502 μM TE) and stomach (4797 μM TE). Moreover, a positive correlation was found between phenolic acids obtained after the fermentation process and the antioxidant activity of the samples. It was also concluded that the lactic acid bacteria isolated from sea bass had an important proteolytic capacity and were able to synthesize phenolic acids with antioxidant capacity. This work has shown the relevance of fermentation as a useful tool to valorize fish byproducts, giving them an added economic value and reducing their environmental impact.

Ultrasound Extraction Mediated Recovery of Nutrients and Antioxidant Bioactive Compounds from Phaeodactylum tricornutum Microalgae

“…The different sizes of proteins contained in the extracts were evaluated after the UAE treatment by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis, according to the method previously described in [24]. Briefly, the proteins were precipitated by adding acetone to the sample (1:4 ratio, v/v for the acetone sample), and then they were centrifuged at 11,000×rpm at 4°C for 10 min.…”

Advances on Food-Derived Peptidic Antioxidants—A Review

“…Microbial fermentation is one traditional way of producing and preserving foods, which can increase the nutritional and health value of foods [122,123]. Due to the action of microorganisms and endogenous proteolytic enzymes, PAs can be produced during the fermentation process [124,125].…”
