Type (IV)
Like Type (III)
Contains Oxidizable cysteine residues
Type (V)
Like Type (VI)
It is rich in hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine
content
But contains no cysteine
Collagen Oxidations
Protein to hydroxyproline
Lysine to hydroxyproline
First Step
The removal of noncollagenous components f
rom the stock
It can be done with acid or with aikali
Acid hydrolysis is a milder treatment
Solubility↑
Produced: Type A gelatins
isoelectric points : pH 6-9
Alkali hydrolysis results in deamidation
produced : Type B gelatins
Isoelectric points : pH 5
Second Step
The conversion of collagen to gelatin by heati
ng in the presence of water
Finally recovery of gelatin in the final form
Gelatin used to make Jello, Gummi Bears
Meat Tenderization
Conditioning
Calcium Treatment
Treatment by Exogenous Proteases
Electrical Stimulation
Mechanical methods
Conversion of collagen to gelatin
occurs during normal cooking of meat
Cooking for a long time in liquid can achieve
the desires tenderness
The tenderness and flakiness of cooked fish
are due to the relative ease with their
collagen is converted to gelatin
