Hydrolyzed collagen from defatted sea bass skin and its conjugate with epigallocatechin gallate: In vitro antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, wound-healing and anti-obesity activities

Abstract The in vitro antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, wound-healing and anti-obesity activities of hydrolyzed collagen (HC) from defatted sea bass (Lates calcarifer) skin and HC conjugated with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) were comparatively studied. HC and HC-EGCG conjugate at all levels (1.25–10 mg/mL) had H2O2 scavenging activity, but the conjugate was more active at all levels (P
