Abstract: Provided herein are methods for treating certain inflammatory and/or respiratory conditions, disorders and diseases in humans using compositions comprising lipopeptides, including microcolins. The compositions are orally administered. The humans suitable for such treatments include those largely resistant to medical and surgical interventions, such as steroid treatments. The compositions described herein have also been found to reduce cosinophil effector function.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods for treating certain inflammatory and/or respiratory conditions, disorders and diseases in humans using salmonid oil compositions. The salmonid oil compositions are orally administered, and may be obtained from mild enzymatic hydrolysis of off-cuts of salmonid fish. The humans suitable for such treatments include those largely resistant to medical and surgical interventions, such as steroid treatments. The salmonid oil compositions described herein have also been found to reduce eosinophil effector function.

Abstract: An enzymatic hydrolysis process for producing a fish protein hydrolysate powder is provided. Further provided is use of the fish protein hydrolysate powder obtained and a composition comprising said powder as a medicament, preferably for the prophylaxis or treatment of oxidative damage of the gastro-intestinal and central nervous system.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of turbine mixing during enzymatic hydrolysis of aquatic protein from species such as fish, aquatic mammals, crustaceans and/or mollusks, to obtain high quality aquatic protein hydrolysates, having very low oxidation, improved organoleptic profile and improved biological activity of interest, for human consumption and cosmetics. The turbine mixing can inhibit oxidation during hydrolysis, contribute to an increase in the bio-activity and decrease the bitter taste of the final product. The process can vary in starting material, pre-treatment, type and amount of enzyme, hydrolysis conditions, time, degree of hydrolysis and post-treatment.
