Collagen-rich meat processing by-products have potential utilization value. Extracellular protease Hap from meat-borne Aeromonas salmonicida has been identified as an ideal protease for hydrolyzing collagen. Here, to explore the possible application of Hap for giving chicken by-products a high added value, the hydrolysis ability and mechanism were investigated. With a V of 31.9 μg/mL/min and a K of 1.18 mg/mL, Hap demonstrated obvious substrate specificity to pepsin-solubilized collagen (PSC) derived from chicken by-products, and significantly affected the tertiary structure and microstructure of PSC. Hap was found to preferentially cleave the peptide bond between Gly-X by peptide release kinetics, attacking from two ends to the middle region for α1 chain. Sixteen peptides are anticipated to be non-toxic with twenty potential biological activities at the end of hydrolysis. These observations will enrich the collagen hydrolysis mechanism of protease secreted by meat-borne bacteria and provide new insights into the utilization of meat by-products.

Chicken processing by-products, such as meat left over on bones, skin, frames and connective tissues, are great sources of functional proteins that offer significant potential for value-added applications, contributing to both waste reduction and environmental sustainability. By transforming the recovered proteins from by-products into hydrogels, new materials can be developed for use in various industries, including food. However, understanding the chemical composition of these by-products and optimizing hydrogel production techniques are critical to producing hydrogels with desirable properties.

The extraction of polysaccharides from wood by-products is recognized as a green re-utilization approach to shape a recycling-oriented society. In this research, we identified the structural properties of arabinogalactan (AG) extracted from Larix sibirica Ledeb wood chips and verified its efficacy as an additive in broiler framing. Results showed that the molecular weight of AG is 19.

Simulating meat flavor via Maillard reaction model systems that contain a mixture of amino acids and reducing sugars is an effective approach to understanding the reaction mechanism of the flavor precursors. Notably, animal resources such as fish, beef, chicken, pork hydrolysates, and fats are excellent precursors in promoting favorable meaty and roasted flavors and umami tastes of Maillard reaction products. The experimental conditions and related factors of the model systems for sensory enhancements, debittering, and off-flavor reduction with meat and by-products are summarized in this review.

Introduction: The reasonable and efficient utilization of agricultural by-products as animal feed has the capacity to not only mitigate the scarcity of conventional feedstuff but also alleviate the environmental load. This study was aimed to investigate the effects of feeding citrus pomace (CP) fermented with combined probiotics on growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality and antioxidant capacity in yellow-feathered broilers.

Methods: A cohort of 540 female yellow-feathered broilers (Qingyuan partridge chicken, 90-day-old) were randomly divided into three groups and, respectively, fed the basal diet (Control), diet containing 10% unfermented CP (UFCP) and diet containing 10% fermented CP (FCP).
