Abstract: This work reports the application of orthogonal array design to explore the optimum chelating conditions of food-grade calciumchloride with collagen polypeptide. The optimal chelating conditions were found to be reaction at 30℃ and an initial pH of 6.0 for 30 min with a calcium-to-collagen polypeptide mass ratio of 13:100. Under the optimized conditions, the calcium-chelating efficiency of collagen polypeptides was 77.7 mg/g. FTIR analysis demonstrated that we successfully obtained collagen polypeptide chelated calcium as a new material. Moreover, the chelated calcium was found to increase bone density in animal studies.

Key words: collagen polypeptide, chelating rate, bone calcium, bone mineral density
