Calcium is one of the most important mineral elements in the human body and is closely related to the maintenance of human health. To prevent calcium deficiency, various calcium supplements have been developed, but their application tends to be limited by low calcium content and highly irritating effects on the stomach, among other side effects. Recently, calcium-peptide chelates, which have excellent stability and are easily absorbed, have received attention as an alternative emerging calcium supplement. Calcium-binding peptides (CaBP) are usually obtained via the hydrolysis of animal or plant proteins, and calcium-binding capacity (CaBC) can be further improved through chromatographic purification techniques. In calcium ions, the phosphate group, carboxylic group and nitrogen atom in the peptide are the main binding sites, and the four modes of combination are the unidentate mode, bidentate mode, bridging mode and α mode. The stability and safety of calcium-peptide chelates are discussed in this paper, the intestinal absorption pathways of calcium elements and peptides are described, and the bioavailability of calcium-peptide chelates, both in vitro and in vivo, is also introduced. This review of the research status of calcium-peptide chelates aims to provide a reasonable theoretical basis for their application as calcium supplementation products.

Calcium peptide chelates are developed as efficient supplements for preventing calcium deficiency. Spent hen meat (SHM) contains a high percentage of proteins but is generally wasted due to the disadvantages such as hard texture. We chose the underutilized SHM to produce peptides to bind calcium by proteolysis and aimed to investigate chelation between calcium and peptides in hydrolysate for a sustainable purpose.

Two fermenters, (LA) and the active dry yellow wine yeast (HY), were utilized to ferment cattle bones in order to release calcium. The influences of fermenters and the fermentation process on the calcium release capacity, particle properties, morphology, and chemical composition of bone powders were assessed, and the underlying mechanism was discussed. The results showed that LA had a better capacity of acid production than yeast, and therefore released more calcium during the fermentation of bone powders.

In recent years, the functional properties of peptides derived from food proteins have attracted considerable interest. Among them, bioactive peptides that can effectively bind metals have application prospects in the improvement of mineral bioavailability, and compensating for the shortcomings of the generally low bioavailability of inorganic mineral supplements. Although a reasonable understanding of structure activity relationship related to the calcium binding of peptides has been gained, physiological connections of peptides as mineral carriers to gastrointestinal uptake needs further research.

Trypsin was used for preparing peptides with high calcium-binding capacity from Antarctic krill. Hydroxyapatite chromatography (HAC), size-exclusion chromatography (SEC), and reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) were used to capture and purify calcium-binding peptides. The peptide sequence was determined to be VLGYIQIR (N- to C-terminal, MW = 960.
