Study Notes

Alternative Protein Sources and Yeast Production

Protein increase in global population drives search for alternative protein sources
Single cell protein (SCP) refers to microbial cells grown for animal/human food
Yeast production: cattle yield 0.4kg protein/24h; yeast yields >50,000kg/24h
Key to high yeast biomass yield is aeration, avoiding fermentation
Yeast production involves scale-up from bench-top to fermentor, fed batch feeding regime
Good bakers' yeast characteristics include high growth rates and cryotolerance
SCP can be produced from algae, fungi, and bacteria through fermentation
Substrates for micro-organism production include molasses, agricultural wastes, and industrial by-products
Nutritive value of micro-organisms varies in protein, vitamins, and mineral content
Limitations of SCP use include indigestible cell walls, mycotoxins, and high nucleic acid content
Quorn myco-protein is an example of SCP for human consumption, made from Fusarium graminearum
Mushrooms are a cheap and excellent source of protein, grown on plant waste and used medicinally
