Abstract:

Proteins are important organic components for phuman health and they provide all necessary amino acids for the body. Milk proteins are considered very important source of bioactive peptides. Bovine milk, colostrum and other milk types are seen as the most important natural source of natural bioactive peptides. Bioactive peptides from milk; It can be obtained from casein and serum proteins. Bioactive peptides derived from milk have been identified as foods promoting health in foods. These peptides contribute to the development of the nervous, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular and immune systems in humans. Thus, it plays a vital role in the prevention of cancer, osteoporosis, hypertension and other health problems. The majority of biological activity is the primary sequence of natural proteins and can be released by enzymatic hydrolysis, proteolysis or microbial fermentation. Bioactive peptides have been identified in fermented milk products, sour milk, whey and ripened cheeses. It is also important to select the ideal bacterial strain and bacterial combination for ideal proteolytic activity and increase the bioactive peptide amount when producing the cheese.
