    Notes: Summary A continuous culture technique was used to optimize the medium composition and growth conditions of a mixed bacterial culture utilizing methanol. The improved medium resulted in satisfactory growth, high-yield coefficients and gave a product containing reduced polysaccharide concentrations. Optimal growth and biomass yields occurred at pH 6.8 a temperature of 37° C and dissolved oxygen at 〉20% saturation. The maximum growth rate was 0.58 h−1 and maximum biomass yield 0.48 g g−1. The protein content of the product ranged between 81%–83%, and nucleic acid content between 10%–12%, increasing with growth rate. The amino acid profile of the mixed culture product met and, in some cases, exceeded the UN Food and Agricultural Organization standard, indicating a good source of feed protein.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La situation actuelle concernant la production industrielle de protéines d'organismes unicellulaires (SCP) à partir des hydrocarbures et d'autres matières premières pétro-chimiques est évaluée du point de vue de la commercialisation des produits. L'applicabilité, dans les pays arabes exportateurs de pétrole au Moyen-Orient et en Afrique du Nord, de ces procédés pour la production stratégique d'ingrédients destinés à l'alimentation humaine et animale est discutée. La possibilité de transférer dans les pays arabes les procédés européens de production commerciale de SCP est discutée. D'autre part, certains faux problèmes ayant empêché le développement des SCP en Europe et au Japon sont identifiés.
    Abstract: Resumen Se valora el estado actual de la tecnología sobre proteínas unicelulares (SCP) a partir de hidrocarburos y de otros productos petroquímicos en relación con la commercialización del proceso. Se estudia la posible aplicación de estas procesos para la producción estratégica de ingredientes para la alimentación tanto humana como animal en los Estados Arabes exportadores de petróleo del Medio Oriente y del Norte de Africa. Se discuten las posibilidades de transferir la techología envuelta en dicho proceso, que ha sido desarrollada en Europa, para la producción a escala comercial de proteínas unicelulares en los Estados Arabes mencionados. Se identifican, además, los problemas surgidos, innecesariamente, que complicaron tanto la producción como el desarrollo del producto en Europa y Japón.
    Notes: Summary The current status of hydrocarbon and petrochemical based single cell protein (SCP) technologies is assessed with respect to process commercialization. The applicability of such SCP processes for the strategic production of food and feed ingredients in the oil exporting Arab states of the Middle East and North Africa is examined. The possibility of transferring European-developed SCP process technology for commercial-scale SCP production in the Arab states is discussed, and unnecessary problems that plagued SCP process and product development in Europe and Japan are identified.

    Notes: Abstract A thermotolerant methylotrophicBacillus sp. (KISRI TM1A, NCIMB 40040), isolated from the Kuwaiti environment and belonging to the group II spore-forming, bacilli, could not be correlated with any knownBacillus sp. It may, therefore, be a new species. It grew at temperatures from 37° to 58°C from pH 6.5 to 9.0 and on methanol up to 40 g l−1. It grew well in a chemostat. Its biomass yield coefficient was improved by about 30% by optimization of medium and growth conditions, reaching a maximum of 0.44g g−1 at 45°C pH 6.8 to 7.0, dilution rate 0.25 h−1 with methanol at 10 g l−1. Average crude protein and amino acid content were 84% and 60%, respectively, and maximum productivity attained under laboratory conditions was 5.06 g l−1h−1. It was concluded that this strain has good potential for use in single-cell protein production.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Quatre bactéries méthylotrophes, isolées à l'Institut pour la Recherche Scientifique du Kuweit, se sont révélées capables de croître sur méthanol comme seule source de carbone à une température maximum de 44°C. Des études intensives en chémostat de variation des concentrations tant en macro-qu'en micro-éléments, ont permis d'obtenir une composition optimum du milieu. Diverses expériences en milieu non renouvelé et en chémostat ont été effectuées à différents pH, températures, taux de dilution et concentration en méthanol. Les résultats ont montré un optimum de pH vers 6.8, de température entre 37 et 40°C, de taux de dilution de 0.2 à 0.3 h−1. Le méthanol s'est révélé inhibiteur aux concentrations supérieures à 20 g l−1. La performance des quatres bactéries dans les conditions du chémostat se sont révélées très semblables. Les expériences de fermentátion en chémostat, utilisant le milieu optimum à 40°C, pH 6.8, taux de dilution de 0.2 h−1 et à 10 g de méthanol par litre dans l'alimentation ont produit un coefficient de rendement en biomasse de 0.42 à 0.44 g de cellules par g de méthanol contenant de 78 à 79% de protéines, de 58 à 62% d'acides aminés totaux et de 10 à 11.5% d'acides nucléiques. En conclusion, les quatre bactéries méthylotrophes présentent une bonne potentialité pour être utilisées dans la production de protéine uni-cellulaire.
    Notes: Summary Four methylotrophic bacteria, isolated at the Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research, were able to grow on methanol as the only carbon source at a maximum temperature of 44°C. An optimized medium composition was obtained through intensive chemostat studies varying both macro- and micro-element concentrations. Various batch and chemostat experiments were carried out at different pH, temperature, dilution rate and methanol concentrations. The results showed optimum pH around 6.8, at temperatures of 37 to 40°C, dilution rate 0.2–0.3 h−1 and methanol was found to be inhibitory at concentrations above 20 g l−1. The performance of all four bacteria under chemostat conditions was similar. Chemostat fermentation experiments using the optimized medium at 40°C, pH 6.8, dilution 0.2 h−1 and 10 g methanol/l in the feed gave a biomass yield coefficient of 0.42–0.44 g/g methanol, 78–79% crude protein content, 58–62% total amino acid content and 10–11.5% nucleic acid content. In conclusion all four methylotrophic strains has good potential for use in the production of single-cell protein.

    Notes: The possibilities of using liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) heavy ends, predominantly volatile liquid n-alkanes (a location-specific hydrocarbon feedstock) for single-cell protein (SCP) production are examined against criteria established to define potentially attractive SCP production processes. The factors discussed include the use of the heat of vaporization for fermentor cooling, the efficiency of conversion of nalkane vapors, problems of maintaining constant composition substrates when feeding volatile liquid n-alkane vapors to laboratory fermentors, the possible solvent effect of liquid n-alkanes, and the possibilities of competitive inhibition. The study confirms that mixed volatile n-alkane feedstocks will introduce major physical and biological problems for both product and process research and development. Even when the technical problems are solved, the economic question of whether a direct production route using the feedstock as the fermentation substrate or an indirect route involving the conversion of the feedstock, by chemical means, into methanol, which can then be used as the fermentation substrate, needs careful examination.

    Notes: The rationale behind KISR's involvement in SCP is explained and emphasis towards the use of aerobic thermophilic/thermotolerant methanol-utilizing bacterial cultures is stressed. An attempt is made to correlate different pilot plant harvesting procedures for biomass recovery with product quality. The latter is expressed as crude and true protein content, moisture and ash content, mineral composition of the ash, and amino acids profiles. The most suitable harvesting procedures were found to be those using a mild heat-acid or acid-heat treatment. Both of these procedures gave high recovery efficiencies and suitable product nutrition.
