Angel Yeast hosts webinar with PPTI to promote sustainable development of proteins

 

 

 

Angel Yeast recently hosted a webinar event on February 28 with Protein Production Technology International (PPTI), a digital publication dedicated to the alternative proteins space.

 

Themed "Sustainable proteins from novel sources", the webinar was attended by leading enterprises, key stakeholders and expert scientists from the alternative protein industry, including:

 

    - Dr. Thomas Eidenberger, technical consultant of Angel Yeast and founder of Belan ZT;

 

    - Dr. Winston Sun, global product manager of Angel Yeast;

 

    - Dr. Karim Kurmaly, director of single cell protein of dsm-firmenich;

 

    - Dr. Adam Leman, lead scientist at The Good Food Institute;

 

    - Bryan Tracy, co-founder and chief executive officer of Superbrew Food Inc.;

 

    - Kilian Daffner, global product manager of Döhler Group.

 

Aligning with Angel Yeast's sustainable strategy, the webinar was an opportunity for the company to promote the global development of alternative proteins and bring focus to the profound impact of how sustainable proteins can advance the development of the industry, the company said.

 

Dr. Eidenberger shared the latest findings of sustainable proteins from novel sources. He noted that although alternative proteins offer more sustainable options compared to traditional meat and dairy, they also have varying environmental impacts. Fermentation technology has brought a new choice of protein that's sustainable, efficient and nutritionally advantaged.

 

"The exciting world of fermentation-enabled food proteins expands the ingredient options significantly, both for the microbes themselves (yeast, algae, fungi) and the nutrients they feed on (sugars, lipids, starches)," Dr. Eidenberger added. "And it's not just about saving the planet, scientists can use fermentation to craft proteins with specific nutritional needs in mind, whether it's boosting Omega-3s or tailoring amino acid profiles."

 

Guests conducted in-depth discussions on the advantages of yeast proteins in coping with the global protein crisis, the characteristics of bacterial biomass and the differences in species, and the challenges involved.
