Its protein quality & chemical score is comparable with soybean or egg protein. The yeast is highly significant as an alternative source of protein to cover the increasing demands due to rapidly escalating population. This book emphasizes on production of cost effective yeast, its evaluation as protein source and its behavior in various food formulations to improve functionality and protein quality of finished products. The book is especially valuable for professionals, and researchers...
