Collagen Peptide Feed Grade Supplier South Africa

Hvad er kollagenpeptider?

Collagen peptides (hydrolysed collagen) are produced by enzymatic hydrolysis of collagen-rich raw materials such as bovine hides and porcine skin, yielding short-chain peptides with high bioavailability. Unlike gelatin, collagen peptides are water-soluble at all temperatures and readily absorbed in the intestine. They are rich in glycine, proline, and hydroxyproline, amino acids essential for collagen re-synthesis in cartilage, skin, and connective tissue.

In companion animal nutrition, collagen peptides are a fast-growing functional ingredient for joint health, mobility, and skin and coat quality in dogs and cats. Supplementation provides bioavailable substrate for cartilage matrix synthesis, reducing degradation in arthritic and aging animals. In equine nutrition, collagen peptides support hoof horn integrity and coat quality. In aquaculture, dietary collagen has shown benefits for bone mineralisation and tissue repair in marine fish species.
