Senthurselvan, V. ; Fernando, T. D. ; Dissanayake, D. M.G.I. and Molagoda, I. M.N. LU (2025) p.263-298
Abstract

Marine ecosystems are consisted with variety of life, accounting for over 80% of the Earth's biodiversity. This rich biodiversity in marine environment includes more than 30,000 species of fish. Additionally, marine biological resources are reservoirs of numerous bioactive compounds with various physiological functions such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiaging, antibacterial, and antiviral properties. This book chapter presents various sources of marine-derived proteins and amino acids, their nutritional characteristics, health advantages, bioactive components, extraction techniques, and practical applications. This would greatly help in understanding the importance and value of this resource and further research can... (More)

Marine ecosystems are consisted with variety of life, accounting for over 80% of the Earth's biodiversity. This rich biodiversity in marine environment includes more than 30,000 species of fish. Additionally, marine biological resources are reservoirs of numerous bioactive compounds with various physiological functions such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antiaging, antibacterial, and antiviral properties. This book chapter presents various sources of marine-derived proteins and amino acids, their nutritional characteristics, health advantages, bioactive components, extraction techniques, and practical applications. This would greatly help in understanding the importance and value of this resource and further research can be conducted to explore other bioactive compounds in marine ecosystem.
