Single cell protein

...In addition, since sulfite pulp waste liquor contains sugars such as xylose, the production of yeast cells that utilize these sugars has been put to practical use. Recently, research has been conducted into the production of microbial proteins, or single cell proteins (SCPs), from substances such as hydrocarbons and methanol. A technology for extracting nucleic acids from yeast cells, hydrolyzing them, and producing nucleic acid seasonings has been developed and put to practical use by Japanese researchers. ...

From [Microbial Protein (Microbial Protein)]
