Abstract A method to prepare fish protein hydrolysate from miscellaneous fish obtained as by
catch from shrimp trawlers is outlined. Effect of temperature and concentration
of enzyme papain on the yield of hydrolysates has been determined. It is seen that
within 30 min at 55°C and pH 6.5 fish proteins can be effectively solubilised, provided
the nitrogen content of the enzyme (activity 10 units/mg enzyme) and substrate
are maintained in the ratio 1 :30. This hydrolysate possesses the best amino acid
pattern compared to those obtained after hydrolysis for 60 to 180 min.
