The possibility of using waste Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris) as a substrate for microbial biomass production was investigated. The juice from waste Chinese cabbage contains relatively high amounts of reducing sugars suitable for yeast culture. The cell mass and protein content of four species of yeast, Candida utilis, Pichia stipitis, Kluyveromyces marxianus, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, were determined when cultured in juice extracted from cabbage waste. Compared to YM broth containing the same level of sugar, all the strains except C. utilis showed higher total protein production in cabbage juice medium (CJM).
