Production of keratin hydrolysates from irradiated chicken feathers via chemical and enzymatic treatments

Chicken feathers are an abundant residue and a suitable material for obtaining soluble keratin. This study explored the combination of physical, chemical and enzimatic processes to maximize protein yield. Initially, chicken feathers were washed, ground, and subjected to electron beam irradiation at...
