Description
Summary:Cassava bagasse is one of tapioca industry's byroducts which often utilized as low protein livestock feed. Single cell production in cassava bagasse research aimed to enrich protein content in cassava bagasse, mainly because rich protein livestock feeds such as fish flour, soybean meal, or corn meal are expensive. The research determined production optimum conditions by visually observing fungi growth in Erlenmeyer 250 mL for five days, with moisture content, pH or rice bran content as variables observed,continued with fermenting fungi in simple tray fermentors using previous data. The optimum production conditions were 64,18%-weight moisture content, pH 4 and 2%-weight rice bran content. Protein content increased from 1,5%-dry weight to 29,95%-dry weight. In scaling-up effort, fungi started to grow at the fifth day. Two main difficulties met in scaling-up effort were the fungi growth slowness and the fast evaporation of moisture content because of bigger surface area.
