In this study, the properties difference of Tilapia (Oreochromis Niloticus) skin collagen peptide chelate zinc prepared by zinc sulfate (P-Zn-S) and zinc lactate (P-Zn-L) were investigated. The results indicated that compared with P-Zn-L, P-Zn-S exhibited higher Zn-chelating capacity and different structural morphology, which may closely relate to the composition amino acid of Asp, Glu, His, Lys, Arg, Cys and Pro. FTIR and UV-Vis analysis indicated that different zinc sources could influence the metal ligands and the types of amino acid residues which were involved in chelation reaction. P-Zn-L exhibited better zinc solubility and had higher dialyzable zinc than P-Zn-S, indicating that P-Zn-L had better zinc bioaccessibility. These results suggested that P-Zn-L with a granular structure could reduced gastric stability, promoted intestinal release, and was beneficial to zinc absorption, which can be used as dietary zinc carriers.
