The recently funded research project, SUPREME will address the challenges of the Norwegian whitefish sector and develop concepts and solutions for increased utilization of rest raw materials (RRM). The sea-going fishing vessels accounts for 86 % of the unutilized whitefish RRM in Norway. Thus, to ac...

Academia is an important contributor in the work towards more sustainable food system through higher education, research and innovation. UNESCOs report on Education for Sustainable Development Goals (2017) encourages us as universities to rethink education in order to contribute to the achievement o...

In Norway, 3 million discarded egg-laying hens are destructed annually, which equals 1500 tons pure hen meat. Due to the slaughter methods used, this raw material is handled as a high-risk waste, while in reality it constitutes a source of valuable components like proteins and lipids....

Chicken protein hydrolysates (CPHs) generated from rest raw materials through enzymatic hydrolysis using Corolase PP or Alcalase were shown to reduce inflammation and stimulate hepatic mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation in high‐fat‐fed mice. This study investigates the effect of CPH diets in atheros...

Purpose To examine whether supplementation with low doses of fish or milk proteins would affect glucose regulation and circulating lipid concentrations in overweight healthy adults. Methods Ninety-three overweight adults were assigned to receive 2.5 g protein/day from herring (HER), salmon (SAL), co...

Increased aquaculture production will result in increased amounts of waste produced, and these wastes are highly underexploited. Polychaetes might effectively consume such waste and transfer them into compounds as marine proteins and lipids. In our study, growth and nutritional composition of the po...
