“…Interaction of iron and CPPs is 100 times stronger than that of other minerals to CPPs (Aït‐oukhatar et al ., ; Ghosh et al ., ), and the obtained complexes of Fe–CPPs seems to be pH‐resistant and partly protected against further hydrolysis while in the digestive tract (Aït‐oukhatar et al ., ; Ani‐Kibangou et al ., ; Boutrou et al ., ). There is some evidence that binding iron to CPPs prevents or reduces the competitive inhibition of iron absorption induced by other divalent minerals (Pérès et al ., ; Miquel & Farré, ). Several studies have been carried out to investigate the nutritional functions of various types of iron–CPP complexes (Aït‐oukhatar et al ., , ; Pérès et al ., ; Bouhallab et al ., ; Chaud et al ., ; Kibangou et al ., ; Gravaghi et al ., ; Miquel & Farré, ; Wang et al ., ), but there are few studies regarding the experimental aspects of generating such compounds.…”
