Whey: Attractive Substrate for Microbial Production of Substances and Materials for Medical Applications
Original language description
Whey is an important surplus product of food industry. Based on the point of view, huge quantities of whey produced worldwide can represent an environmental problem with its disposal, or, due to the fact that whey is rich in fermentable nutrients, it canbe considered as an attractive substrate for microbial production of various industrially interesting products. Therefore; this chapter is intended to summarize possible up-stream processing methods, general principles and fermentation strategies for the microbial productions using whey as a substrate. Further; among huge amount of potential products, this review focuses on the production of high value substances and materials which find applications especially in the field of health care and medicine.At first, many biologically active substances such as vitamins, carotenoids, antibiotics etc. can be produced from whey employing various microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts as well as fungi) and cultivation strategies. Moreover, also numbe
