Single cell proteins are being produced using waste organic matter. Which of the following set correctly represents the organic waste materials used for the purpose?
1 Wastewater from potato processing plants, straw, molasses
2 Animal manure, sewage, antibiotics
3 Sewage, industrial waste, waste from nuclear reactors
4 Hydrocarbon, straw, volcanic eruptions
Explanation:
Single cell proteins are obtained from the microbes grown on industrial and household waste. Examples of such waste products include wastewater from potato processing plants, straw, molasses, animal manure, sewage and even hydrocarbon waste from the petroleum plants.

Consider the following statements. (A) More than 50% of the human population is suffering from hunger and malnutrition. (B) Single cell protein is also known as microbial protein or bio protein. Select the correct option.
1 Both (A) and (B) are true.
2 (A) is true but (B) is false.
3 Both (A) and (B) are false.
4 (A) is false but (B) is true.
Explanation:
Most than 25% of the human population is suffering from hunger and malnutrition. It is due to the inability of conventional plant breeding to meet the demand for food for the growing population. The poor nutrient quality of food crop causes malnutrition. Single cell proteins are obtained from microbes and hence, are also called microbial protein or bio proteins.

3 A = 4, B = 2, C = 1, D = 3
4 A = 3, B = 1, C = 4, D = 2
Explanation:
Fruit peels such as cucumber and orange peels are used as a substrate to grow microbes for single cell proteins. Methanomonas, Spirulina and Aspergillus are the bacteria, algal and fungal sources of single cell proteins, respectively.

Which of the following represents the production of single cell proteins?
1 Production of Saccharomyces cerevisiae from molasses in World War I.
2 Production of Torula yeast on sulfite liquor waste from paper production plants during World War II.
3 Growing cell biomass of Saccharomyces cerevisiae on fruit peels.
4 All the given choices are correct.
Explanation:
Production of single cell protein was first done to meet the demand of protein during World War I by growing the edible yeast cells on molasses. During World War II, the waste from paper production plant was used to obtain single cell proteins. Fruit peels serve as an excellent substrate to grow edible yeast.
