Description
Summary:Cassava bagasse is a by-product of the starch processing industry which contains a high quantity of starch and low protein content. Consequently, its application in animal feed is limited. In this study, solid-state fermentation was carried out to valorize this by-product. Two strains Aspergillus oryzae VS1 and Sporidiobolus pararoseus O1 were co-cultivated on cassava bagasse at 30 °C and 70% moisture to co-enrich protein, lipid, and β-carotene of cassava bagasse. Our result showed that at the inoculum size of log 9 cells of S. pararoseus O1 and log 6 spores of A. oryzae VS1 per gram of dry cassava bagasse, the protein, lipid, and β-carotene improved to 7.92%, 50.3 mg/g and 14.96 µg/g, respectively. Specially, the digestibility of organic matter increased 1.3-fold comparing to the initial cassava bagasse. To improve β-carotene content, several compounds were individually added to the solid-state fermentation namely ethanol, hydrogen peroxide, or citrate. The highest β-carotene accumulation of 48 µg/g dry cassava bagasse was attained using 1% citrate. Co-cultivation of A. oryzae and S. pararoseus using solid-state fermentation is a suitable approach to increase the nutritional value and β-carotene composition of cassava bagasse for animal feed application.
