Utilisation of sugar beet bagasse for the biosynthesis of yeast SCP

摘要

The possibility of using sugar beet pulp to produce yeast biomass was evaluated in this study. Viscozyme and Ultraflo Max preparations were used for hydrolysis, which was performed on a semi-industrial scale. Out of 250 kg of wet beet pulp, 375 dm(3) of hydrolysate was obtained. After being enriched with mineral salts (N, P, K, Mg), the medium was inoculated with Trichosporon cutaneum LOCK 0254, Candida tropicalis LOCK 0007 Pichia stipitis LOCK 0047, Candida guilliermondii ATCC 6260 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae LOCK 0132 yeast strains.
