| Abstract |
An example of the implementation of the principles of the circular economy is the use of sugar beet pulp as animal feed. Here, we investigate the possible use of yeast strains to enrich waste biomass in single-cell protein (SCP). The strains were evaluated for yeast growth (pour plate method), protein increment (Kjeldahl method), assimilation of free amino nitrogen (FAN), and reduction of crude fiber content. All the tested strains were able to grow on hydrolyzed sugar beet pulp-based medium. The greatest increases in protein content were observed for Candida utilis LOCK0021 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ethanol Red (Delta N = 2.33%) on fresh sugar beet pulp, and for Scheffersomyces stipitis NCYC1541 (Delta N = 3.04%) on dried sugar beet pulp. All the strains assimilated FAN from the culture medium. The largest reductions in the crude fiber content of the biomass were recorded for Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ethanol Red (Delta = 10.89%) on fresh sugar beet pulp and Candida utilis LOCK0021 (Delta = 15.05%) on dried sugar beet pulp. The results show that sugar beet pulp provides an excellent matrix for SCP and feed production. |
