YEASTS AS A SOURCE OF SINGLE CELL PROTEIN PRODUCTION : A REVIEW

Abstract

More than twenty years ago, biological systems, including systems, were used microbes such as bacteria, fungi, algae, and yeasts in the production of Single Cell Protein, due to the ability of these systems to carry out a wide range of biochemical reactions and easily adapt to different environmental conditions, It enables them to benefit from sources cheap carbon. It is important to produce proteins Single-celled being cheaper at the level commercial and its production depends on industrial waste Agricultural, It is not affected by climatic changes and natural disasters, In addition to the possibility of producing large quantities of it. In a short time compared to the traditional methods of production Vegetable and animal protein.
