The application discloses collagen
tripeptide and a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of bioengineering. The preparation method comprises the following steps: obtaining
bacillus velezensis with high
collagenase yield through separation and identification, the
bacillus velezensis belongs to probiotics, and high-activity
collagenase is obtained through
fermentation culture and purification; taking
shark cartilage or blue
fish skin as raw materials, and obtaining collagen
tripeptide through the following steps of combined enzymolysis of
alkaline protease and
collagenase after pretreatment, inactivation,
centrifugal separation and freeze-
drying. The collagen
tripeptide prepared by the application has a molecular weight of less than 500 Dalton, contains
active components such as GHK tripeptide, is easy to absorb and has high safety, and can be used for preparing
antioxidant products, anti-inflammatory products, memory-enhancing products or
immunity-enhancing products. The application solves the problems of unsafe collagenase source and low collagen tripeptide preparation efficiency, and has a good industrial application prospect.
