Seabass (Lates calcarifer) is one of the economically important
species of Thailand and other countries in the Southeast Asia. It
has been widely used for fillet production, in which a large amount
of byproducts e.g., skin, bone, scales, etc., is generated. Fish processing
byproducts can account 75% of the total catch weight. About
30% of byproducts consist of skin and bone, which can serve as a
source of collagen and gelatin. The utilisation of fish skin and bone
for gelatin production can add value to processing byproducts and
to eliminate harmful environmental aspects
