Production of eicosapentaenoic acid by mortierella spp on barley spent grain

Author: Jacobs, A ; Du Plessis, LM ; Nxumalo, N ; Combrink, A Date: Feb 2006 There is a growing interest in sources alternative to fish oil of long- chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), particularly the ω-3 PUFAs such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). The current study aims to produce ω- 3 PUFAs, by solid- state ... Read more
Production of eicosapentaenoic acid by representatives of the genus Mortierella on brewers’ spent grain

Author: Jacobs, A ; Van Zyl, WH ; Botha, A Date: 2009 Brewers’ spent grain (BSG) was evaluated as substrate for the production of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) by solid state fermentation with 29 fungal strains representing different Mortierella species. The effect of a 10% (w/w) linseed oil (LSO) ... Read more
Production of highly unsaturated fatty acids using agro-processing by-products

Author: Jacobs, A ; Reddy, J Date: Nov 2008 The South African agro-processing industry generates millions of tons of cereal derived by-products annually. The by-products from biofuel production are expected to increase these volumes dramatically. Highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) ... Read more

Protein digestibility of soybean, canola and sunflower meal, and its effect on growth performance and body

Author: Mothwa, M ; Jacobs, A ; Dlamini, Nomusa R Date: Sep 2013 The apparent protein digestibility of three feed ingredients, namely soybean, canola and sunflower meal, was studied for Tilapia rendalli, using chromic oxide as a dietary marker. The effect of these ingredients on the growth performance and ... Read more
Sunflower press cake as a substrate for eicosapentaenoic acid production by representatives of the genus Mortierella

Author: Jacobs, A ; Botha, A ; Van Zyl, WH ; Reddy, JK Date: May 2010 Long chain omega-3 fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) are essential for the regulation of critical biological functions in humans and other mammals. EPA production via solid state fermentation of sunflower press cake was investigated ... Read more
