Peptide Profile, Bioactivities, and Identification of 9 New Bioactive Peptides Following In Vitro Digestion of Duckweed Proteins

Scientific poster created by Tristan Muller, postdoctoral fellow in the research team of Laurent Bazinet.

Duckweed is a small aquatic plant with strong agronomic potential (biomass doubling in 48 hours, 15–40% protein), and its extracted and purified proteins exhibit excellent functional properties comparable to commercial protein isolates. However, their digestibility and the bioactive potential of the peptides released after gastrointestinal digestion remain largely understudied.
