Investigation of Cashew Apple Juice as a Substrate for Single Cell Protein Production

Abstract: Cashew juice was investigated for its ability to support the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A characteristic of the juice showed that it contained a mixture of fermentable sugars of which glucose, fructose and sucrose have been identified. Also the concentration of reducing sugars was as high as 15% w/v. Growth studies were carried out in a 7-L batch fermentor at a pH of 5.0 and 30°C with and without nutrient supplementation. The corresponding yields were 0.50 and 0.39 gram cells/gram reducing sugar consu… Show more

“…. etc) in the medium, which is in accordance with observations by Layokun et al [57], who have worked on cashew apple juice that it contained a mixture of fermentable sugars (glucose, fructose, and sucrose) as a substrate for the single cell protein production using S. cerevisiae NCYC 1250. These authors show that the consumption of sugars in the unsupplemented medium is lower compared with the supplemented medium with nitrogen source and mineral salts.…”

“…It is rich in reducing sugars such as fructose, glucose, sucrose, vitamins, minerals, and some amino acids [14]. Thus, the rich juice has been investigated for its possible use as carbon source in several fermentation processes such as in production of single cell protein [14,15], wine [15], mannitol [16,17], biosurfactant [18], lactic acid [16], and oxalic acid [19]. The use of the juice for these purposes may serve as a means of dealing with the problem of spoilage and underutilization after collecting the nuts, which is the main reason for cashew production.…”
