The modern system of high-quality nutrition for the population includes the use of natural compounds from secondary products of animal origin. In the course of scientific substantiation of using secondary products from the processing of cephalopods, dried products from the skin of Pacific (Todarodes pacificus) and Commander squid (Berryteuthis magister) have been studied, their protein and amino acid composition and functional and technological characteristics have been analyzed. In samples from the skin of the Pacific squid, a high content of glutamic and aspartic acids (8–10 %) is noted; in samples from the skin of the Commander squid – glycine (20 %), proline (10 %) and arginine. High indicators of solubility, water-holding capacity and stability of foam structures are due to the significant content of type I destructured collagen (in a sample from the skin of Commander squid), and hydrophilic amino acids and type III collagen fragments (in a product made from Pacific squid skin). Infrared drying of products promotes denaturation and gelatinization of collagen in the skin of Commander squid, which is confirmed by the brighter color characteristics of the samples and high moisture-binding capacity when the temperature rises to 40 and 60 °C; this fact indicates an increase in the hydrophilic properties of the products of destruction of collagen fractions. Products made from skin, which is a secondary product of squid processing, have high potential for use in the food industry as water-retaining, fat-binding, and fat-emulsifying components.
