Abstract

Recently, a great deal of interest has been paid by the consumers towards natural bioactive compounds as functional ingredients in the diets due to their various health beneficial effects. Hence, it can be suggested that bio-processed marine products are alternative sources for synthetic ingredients that can contribute to consumer’s well-being, as a part of nutraceuticals and functional foods. The ultra filtration membrane bioreactor is a novel technology to bio-process marine products. This review presents an overview of bio-processing and perspectives of bioprocessed marine products for use as nutraceuticals and functional foods.
