Methylotrophic Bacteria: Small Organisms Providing Proteins

Global protein demands are at an all-time high. However, using only animal-based proteins such as meat is not sufficient to meet this demand. In the quest for developing alternative proteins for animal-based foods, researchers are experimenting with algae, fungi, insects,... Discover More

Insects: The Next Frontier in Alternative Protein

As the InnoProtein project continues to explore and optimize alternative protein sources, efforts are now moving beyond fungal protein cultivation to another promising option: insect protein. InnoProtein investigated species such as black soldier flies, mealworms, and silkworms to better understand how insect rearing can be optimized for both yield and nutritional quality. This research aims to maximize both the efficiency... Discover More

Single Cell Proteins (SCPs): Overlooked Protein Alternatives

There has been a lot of discussion on the topic of meat alternatives, especially since the European ban on various meat names for plant-based products [1]. It is a very polarizing topic, and yet, there is a part of the... Discover More

Advancing Protein Recovery from Fungal Fermentation

With a growing population and limited land resources, InnoProtein and partners like Tecnalia are exploring innovative ways to supplement the global protein supply. One promising approach is fungal solid-state fermentation (SSF), where fungi grow on solid substrates instead of the... Discover More
