THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE NUTRITIONAL VALUE OF ACID-HYDROLYZED CORN MEAL WITH GROWING CADIDA TROPICALIS / 西安交通大学学报(医学版)

ABSTRACT

Corn meal was hydrolyzed in HCI ,and pH adjusted to 6.8 with (NH_4)OH. The substrate was inoculated with Cadida trapicalis ,then cultivated in a shaker at 30℃ and in 200r/min for 2 days. The Results indicated that the protein content in corn meal grew from 8.4 to 27.4%the lysine in the protein increased from 32.1 to 73.48/kg,the tryptophan from 6.8 to to 14.8g/kg. This shows that the nutritional value of corn meal can be improved with this method.
