Hydrolysis is a chemical breakdown of molecules using water. Protein hydrolysates are formed by the hydrolysis of protein. Protein hydrolysates are defined as a complex mixture of oligopeptides, peptides, and free amino acids that are produced by partial or extensive hydrolysis, while bio-peptides or bioactive peptides are defined as peptides that possess beneficial pharmacological properties. It is a mixture of amino acids prepared by splitting a protein with acid, alkali, or enzyme. Such preparations provide the nutritive equivalent of the original material in the form of its constituent amino acids and are used as nutrient and fluid replenishing in special diets or for patients unable to take ordinary food proteins. They have numerous health benefits as they help the body in absorbing amino acids more rapidly than intact protein, thus maximizing nutrient delivery and have various applications in food and Beverage industry.
