Edible bird’s nest: physicochemical properties, production, and application of bioactive extracts and glycopeptides

Edible bird’s nest (EBN), the swiftlet’s nest, has been consumed for centuries as a tonic or health food. The information upon the usage and benefits of the EBN are largely based on historical and observational reports since its discovery, until some were proven scientifically at recent times. Studi...
