Identification and Antimicrobial Activity of Medium-Sized and Short Peptides from Yellowfin Tuna (<i>Thunnus albacares</i>) Simulated Gastrointestinal Digestion

Identification and Antimicrobial Activity of Medium-Sized and Short Peptides from Yellowfin Tuna (<i>Thunnus albacares</i>) Simulated Gastrointestinal Digestion

Due to the rapidly increasing resistance to conventional antibiotics, antimicrobial peptides are emerging as promising novel drug candidates. In this study, peptide fragments were obtained from yellowfin tuna muscle by simulated gastrointestinal digestion, and their antimicrobial activity towards Gr...
