Abstract:SummaryMicroalgae, the photosynthetic microorganisms, open novel commercial opportunities for developing new products because of their abundance in protein, carbohydrates, pigments, vitamins and minerals. These microorganisms possess several advantages such as rapid growth, minimal land and water requirements and adaptability to various environmental conditions. As concerns arise regarding the ability of animal and plant‐based sources to meet future protein demands, researchers have turned their attention to m… Show more
“…In addition, we feature review articles on microalgae (Bhatnagar et al, 2023) and mycoprotein (Khan et al, 2023), millet proteins (Singh et al, 2023) as sustainable meat alternatives due to their unique functional food value and protein structure. However, challenges persist, including issues related to largescale production, texture, structural features and the sustainability of microalgae and mycoprotein products, as well as their acceptance among vegan consumers.…”
