Yeast protein concentrate from biofuels as novel feed ingredient

At the University of Plymouth they have been looking at biofuel products. The co products can often be used in animal nutrition. Plymouth working in co operation with AB Vista biofuel derived yeast protein concentrate (YPC) have been evaluating YPC as part of the ingredient of a novel feed in carp diets. A novel yeast co-product obtained from a bio-ethanol process in which wheat was the predominant feedstock was tested in a series of iso-nitrogenous (38 percent crude protein) and iso-lipidic (8 percent) diets for juvenile mirror carp (Cyprinus carpio).
