Scientists replace fishmeal in aquaculture with microbial protein derived from soybean processing wastewater

Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) and Temasek Polytechnic have successfully replaced half of the fishmeal protein in the diets of farmed Asian seabass with a "single cell protein" cultivated from microbes in soybean processing wastewater, paving the way for more sustainable fish farming practices. The findings are published in the journal Scientific Reports.
