    Saltwater crocodile ( Crocodylus porosus ; SC) farming generates 45% bone waste, creating environmental challenges but also representing an underutilized source of calcium. This study presents the first comprehensive protocol for extracting bio-calcium from SC bone through sequential processing: autoclaving, alkaline soaking, ethanol extraction, and hydrogen peroxide bleaching. The extraction process yielded 16.94% bio-calcium with a high mineral density (26.37% Ca and 13.83% P) and an average particle size of 6.77 μm. XRD confirmed the preserved hydroxyapatite structure, while FTIR revealed the complete elimination of the organic matrix in the resulting bio-calcium. SEM-EDS demonstrated uniform elemental distribution with no detectable heavy metals. Remarkably, in vitro calcium bioavailability reached 15.24%, representing a 78% enhancement over fish bone bio-calcium and doubling synthetic supplement performance. Preserved collagen-derived amino acids facilitate calcium-peptide chelation, explaining the superior absorption. The developed valorization process converts aquaculture waste into high-value ingredients with potential applications in food and pharmaceuticals.

    This study presented the potential of bio-calcium powder (BC) from Nile tilapia bone on enhancement of probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus) stability as supporting material in probiotic immobilization and novel nutritive resource, particularly calcium. Combined immobilization techniques of absorption using BC at different concentrations (0, 10, and 15%) and encapsulation using fish collagen peptide (CP) (10%) were applied. Immobilized probiotics (IP) were investigated for resistance through various adverse conditions, including freeze-drying, severe pH and temperature levels, and gastro-intestinal tract (GI) conditions. After freeze-drying, all IPs showed resistance with > 90% survivability. Under various pHs, all samples revealed non-significant differences on cell survival under neutral and alkaline conditions throughout the tested incubation period (P > 0.05). Notably decreased survivability was detected in IP with BC compared to other samples, especially under acid condition. IP with 10 and 15% BC (IP-10 and IP-15) showed higher stability to thermal condition (55 °C) with increased incubation time, compared with those without BC (IP-0). After GI digestion, IP with BC reveals a better survivability with greater recovery ability, compared with IP-0 (P < 0.05). Calcium solubility increased with BC level in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.05). Based on morphology and microscopy analysis, IP with BC illustrated cells attached to the rough surface of BC, which was coated with collagen peptide. Elemental mappings and distribution content suggested BC could be a great supporting material and calcium resource, particularly IP-15. Therefore, the absorption by BC together with encapsulation by collagen peptide could render a highly stable immobilized probiotic and a good calcium resource.

    This research examined the impact of various comparative preparation methods on enhanced physicochemical, and structural properties of bio-calcium (BC) from hybrid catfish bone. Raw hybrid catfish bones (RB) were used to make bio-calcium in four steps. High-pressure water jet processing produced washed bone (WB), soaking the bone in an alkaline solution to remove proteins (PR), immersing it in ethanol to remove lipids (LR), then bleaching, and grinding it to make bio-calcium powder. The BC had greater lightness values (L*) (p < 0.05), and contained significant calcium, and phosphorus. The SDS-PAGE showed three significant protein bands with molecular weights of 250, 133, and 116 kDa. The crystalline structure of hydroxyapatite in BC was confirmed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The percentage of crystallinity of BC had a notable rise, increasing from the RB to BC of 36.25%–45.32%. The BC powder exhibited a consistent distribution of particle sizes, ranging from 2 to 10 μm. Additionally, the analysis of elemental profiles, and mappings using scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) revealed that BC exhibits a significant concentration of calcium, and phosphorus. BC showed superior %bioavailability of calcium (18.94%) in an in vitro simulated gastrointestinal system (GIMs) compared to RB (10.58%), and calcium carbonate (11.19%). Hence, the BC production process proved to be a viable method for acquiring premium-grade BC, which holds potential for further development as a calcium dietary supplement.
