Finding stable and bioavailable calcium supplements is crucial for addressing calcium deficiency. In this study, glycated peptide-calcium chelates (WMPHs-COS-Ca) were prepared from walnut meal protein hydrolysates (WMPHs) and chitosan oligosaccharides (COSs) through the Maillard reaction, and the structural properties and stability of the WMPHs-COS-Ca were characterized. The results showed that WMPHs and COSs exhibited high binding affinities, with a glycation degree of 64.82%. After glycation, Asp, Lys, and Arg decreased by 2...
