    Production of %&P by mass culture of microorganisms is yet to ta/e momentum at industrial

    scale and deserve much attention to solve the problem of starvation in the coming decades

    !he criteria for microorganisms to be used as food or feed include 1the organism must be

    genetically stable" non toxic and grow rapidly on a simple non specific medium2 it should

    have high nutritional or vitamin content and should be edible to human and other animals

    !he organisms should also utili+e the energy source without producing any side effects and

    any undesirable effects 3 it should be easy to separate the cells from the medium and the

    product must have good $uality and composition Among the various groups of

    microorganisms used to produce %&P" yeasts are perhaps the most important groups because

    yeasts produce many bioactive substances such as proteins" amino acids" vitamins"

    polysaccharides" fatty acids" phospholipids" polyamines" astaxanthins" 0-carotenoids"

    trehalose" glutathione" superoxide dismutase" chitinase" amylase" phytase" protease" /iller

    toxin etc which have been receiving much attention for many decades !he main nutritional

    contribution in either human food or animal feed is its high protein content ecause of high

    protein and fat content" the contribution of carbohydrates to the nutritional value of %&P is

    not of prime importance ut a maor constraint for yeast as %&P is the thic/ cell wall which

    is difficult to digest leading to poor protein bioavailability

    Agricultural activities and food industry generate considerable $uantities of wastes which are

    rich in organic matter and could constitute new materials for value added products A

    growing concern for the acute food shortages for the world#s expanding population has led to

    the exploitation of non-conventional food sources as potential alternatives Among these" the

    single cell organisms probably present the best chances for the development of uni$ue

    independence of agricultural crop based food supply

    %ingle cell protein is a biomass based on protein extract derived from microorganism%ingle

    cell protein offers numerous advantages for the productions of proteins because of its high

    productivity"low cost media"less effort and product with added nutritional mar/et

    value'pandey et al"12(!he single cell protein is a dehydrated cell consisting of mixture of

    proteins" lipids"carbohydrates" nucleic acids" inorganic compoundsand a variety of other non protein

    nitrogenous compounds such as vitaminsAgricultural wastes are useful substrate for production of

    microbial protein" but must meet the following criteria it should be non toxic" abundant" totally

    regenerable"non-exotic" cheap and able to support rapid growth and multiplication of the organisms

    resulting in high $uality biomass

    !he continued population growth especially in developing and third-world countries is

    resulting in increased food demand in parallel and is posing serious threats to food security

    due to yawning gap in demand and supply 'Anupama and 5avindera" 2666( &hronic

    malnutrition and hunger are typically most prevalent in developing countries alnutrition is

    a conse$uence of not ta/ing appropriate amount or $uality of nutrients comprising diet !he

    gap b8w demand and supply is expected to grow unless planned actions are ta/en to improve

    the situation !herefore it is essential to search for un-conventional or novel proteins to

    supplement the available sourcesecause of population explosion and the limited land resources"

    the world will be soon unable to feed its population At the present time the food problem is limited

    mainly to developing countries of Asia" Africa and %outh America9owever" Predictions show that

    more advanced nations will eventually face the same problems !he developing of novel food

    production process independent of agricultural land use is thus becoming imperative

    finished food products by augmenting protein-rich cheaper ingredients in food formulations

    best $uality proteins '%aima et al" 266;(" however microbial protein also /nown as single

    cell protein grown on agricultural wastes is one of the important optional proteins because of

    higher protein content and very short growth cycle of microorganisms"thereby" leading to

    some $uantity for food5esearch on single cell protein has been stimulated by food crisis or food

    shortages that will occur if the world#s populations are not controlled %cientists believe that use of

    microbial fermentations and the development of an industry to produce and supply single cell proteins

    from agricultural waste are insufficient

    !he present study was focused on yeast single cell protein rather than bacterial" fungal and algal

    single cell protein Algal single cell protein have limitations such as the need for warm temperatures

    and plenty of sun light in addition to carbon dioxide" and also that the algal cell wall is indigestible

    acteria are capable of growth on a wide variety of substrates" have a short generation time and are

    high protein content !heir use is somewhat limited by poor public acceptance of bacteria as food"

    small si+e and difficulty of harvesting and high content of nucleic acid on a dried weight basis easts

    are probably the most widely accepted and used microorganisms for single cell protein !hese include

    strains of #andida utilis, #. arborea, #. pulcherrima andaccharomyces cerevisiaePichia stipitis is

    also used for %&P production in the present study)n recent years increasing attention has been

    given to the conversion of food processing wastes into valuable by-products such as the

    pineapple has rapidly promoted growth of yeast cells &oncerning protein content" the highest

    thereafter decreased !he present findings are in agreement with the findings of Abou 9amed

    !he bioconversion effect of pineapple waste into %&P was evaluated using yeast !he

    increase in biomass contents were observed when there was increase in pineapple waste

    concentration !he highest biomass content of . cerevisiae and #.tropicalis was recorded on

    7th day fermentation !he highest protein content of .cerevisiae and # tropicalis was

    recorded on the 7thday of fermentation at E > concentration !he highest reducing sugar

    content of yeast was recorded on 3 rdday of fermentation at E> concentration !he utili+ation

    of reducing sugar was increased with the increase in the concentration of substrates !he

    present findings reveals that pineapple waste can be used as effective alternate carbon source

    for %&P production Also the orang peels have the same effects on all the para meters
