摘要:The aim of this research was to examine the influence of difference growthmedia, i. e. tofu liquid waste, tofu solid waste, and coconut water in variouscomposition and Yeast Extract Peptone Dextrose (YEPD), to protein contentsof Saccharomyces cerevisiae in Single Cell Protein (SCP) production. Theframework of this research was that tofu liquid waste, tofu solid waste, andcoconut water were containing a lot of carbons, nitrogens, minerals, andvitamin that could be used as growth medium of S. cerevisiae to produceSCP, which was commonly used. The medium from tofu liquid waste andthe coconut water were made by ratio 2:1, 1:1, 1:2 and added with tofu solidwaste 1.5 g and 2.5 g. Then, the measurement of pH medium, the amount ofcell, cell dried weight, and the protein content in S. cerevisiae was done.The measurement of protein content was done by Lowry method. The resultof the research showed that growth media influenced protein content of S.cerevisiae. Protein content of S. cerevisiae cultured in tofu liquid wastecoconutwater was lower then in YEPD medium. The protein content of S.cerevisiae cultured in tofu liquid waste and coconut water ratio 1:2, addedwith 2.5 g tofu solid waste was higher then in other medium composition.
