Ossein
Overview
Fish scales are the primary raw material for making Ossein. Ossein is the organic protein matrix left after removing calcium and other organic salts from fish scales. This process of obtaining fish ossein from fish scales is called Demineralisation. This collagen rich protein mass has very minimal ash content and is one of the preferred raw materials for fish collagen manufacturing, in addition to other raw material sources like wet and dry fish skin.

Ossein
Dry Fish Scales
Demineralized fish scales (Ossein) are used to produce gelatin and collagen. We supply Ossein which is almost neutral in pH (between 6 to 7), high in nitrogen content, low in moisture, and with minimal ash content. This will result in a high yield of collagen peptides. We have our own procurement facility where we collect tons of fish left over to produce value-added products.
With innovation, a scientific approach, and keeping sustainability in mind, we are up-cycling marine waste and creating value-added ingredients for applications in food and beverages, agro, animal feed, pharma, and much more. Nizona has its own collection mechanism in India and today we are the largest raw material supplier of fish scales from India to various collagen manufacturers across the world. We have extensive experience in exporting fish scales to China, Japan, Thailand, Vietnam, France and Indonesia.

The raw material for collagen
Fish Ossein
Ossein (Protein) is a process where the dried fish scales are demineralized and calcium is removed from the scales (also called decalcification). The scales are made ready for collagen peptide extraction. Demineralized fish scales are also called decalcified fish scales.
‘Demineralized fish scales’ (Ossein) is a collagen raw material pretty close to 100% protein once moisture is deducted. We obtain it by removing minerals matters from fish scales. Fish Ossein has recently gained popularity as an alternative material to fish skin for marine collagen production.
Our Ossein-making process is an environment-friendly process, wherein we recycle a considerable quantity of water and reuse the same water in the ossein-making process.

The best and optimal source for COLLAGEN and GELATIN
The latest survey was conducted in 2022 by the Industry Transparency Center (ITC) of collagen consumers and supplement users from the US, China, the UK, Germany, and Italy. Those findings imply an association between the user’s knowledge and the sources of the ingredients. Beauty and joint health are the top primary reasons to use collagen supplements. The protein contents matter in the various collagen applications.
The collagen obtained from the fish scales has maximum protein content as compared to other sources. As per the report, fish scales are the best source of collagen as they may help delay signs of aging, like wrinkles, joint issues, and weakness. Sustainability influences the purchasing decision. Sustainability is a huge driver and it frequently impacts health so it is very important to choose the right source significantly.
