Recent advances in the production of single cell protein from renewable resources and applications

Single Cell Protein (SCP) as a promising protein alternative for multiple applications. Production of SCP by a plethora of microorganisms, including fungi, yeasts, bacteria, and algae. The production of SCP and process sustainability could be enhanced via the valorization of agricultural waste. Potential application as packaging material. Sensorial-, and safety-aspects as well as consumers perception issues of SCP incorporation into food-related matrices.
