What are the Advantages of Yeast Peptones in the Fermentation Process?

Peptones are typically defined as partially hydrolyzed proteins that occur as liquids, pastes, powders, or granules. They can be obtained from animal, vegetal, and yeast proteins. While animal and vegetal peptones have been on the market for some time, yeast peptones are less known compared to other types of peptone available on the market.
Yeast peptones offer numerous advantages not only in terms of being animal and allergen-free, but also in terms of batch consistency, biomass growth rate, and cell viability.
Let’s have a look at what makes yeast peptones unique and the major benefits they can offer to the biotech industry.
