Microalgae protein digestibility: How to crack open the black box? Instituut voor Landbouw-, Visserij- en Voedingsonderzoek
Microalgae are booming as a sustainable protein source for human nutrition and animal feed. Nevertheless, certain strains were reported to have robust cell walls limiting protein digestibility. There are several disruption approaches to break down the cell integrity and increase digestive enzyme accessibility. This review’s intent is to discuss the digestibility of microalgae proteins in intact cells and after their disruption. In intact single ...
