Hydrolysate refers to any product of
hydrolysis. Protein hydrolysate has special application in
sports medicine because its consumption allows
Amino acid to be absorbed by the body more rapidly than intact
Protein, thus maximizing nutrient delivery to muscle tissues.
[Manninen, Anssi H., "PROTEIN HYDROLYSATES IN SPORTS AND EXERCISE: A
BRIEF REVIEW", Journal of Sports Science and Medicine, Vol 3, p 60-63, (2004)] It is also used in the
biotechnology industry as a supplement to
Cell culture.

In the December 2013 edition of
The International Journal of Food Science and Technology, hydrolysate was shown to be rich in
L-aspartic acid and the necessary minerals
manganese and
selenium
