Abstract

Spirulina platensis is symbiotic, multicellular, and filamentous blue-green microalgae. It is a rich source of some highvalue bioactive molecules containing essential amino acids, pigments like β-carotene and phycobiliproteins and polyunsaturated fatty acids PUFAs such as eicosapentaenoic acid EPA and docosahexaenoic acid DHA . Spirulina platensis and bioactive peptides derived from these microalgae are gaining more attention because of their nutritional and various medicinal properties like antioxidant, antihypertensive, antimicrobial, anti-diabetes and antiobesity activities. This study provides an overview about bioactive peptides derived from microalgae Spirulina platensis and their some biological activities with health benefits

Mikroalg Spirulina platensis’ten Elde Edilen Biyoaktif Peptitler ve Biyofonksiyonel Aktiviteleri

Abstract

Spirulina platensis simbiyotik, çok hücreli ve ipliksi yapıda mavi-yeşil mikroalgdir. Esansiyel aminoasitler, β-karoten ve fikobiliproteinler gibi pigmentler ve eikosapentaenoik EPA ve dokosaheksaenoik asit DHA gibi çoklu doymamış yağ asitleri gibi bazı değerli biyoaktif bileşiklerin zengin bir kaynağıdır. Spirulina platensis ve ondan elde edilen biyoaktif peptitler besinsel ve antioksidan, antihipertansif, antimikrobiyal, antidiyabetik ve antiobezite etkiler gibi bazı medikal faydaları nedeniyle sağlıklı gıda bileşeni olarak gittikçe önem kazanmaktadır. Bu çalışma, Spirulina platensis’ten elde edilen biyoaktif peptitler ve onların bazı sağlık faydaları hakkında bilgi vermeyi amaçlamaktadır
