The aim of the current study was to apply a mixed culture of Candida utilis and Brevibacterium lactofermentum instead of using a mono-culture of B. lactofermentum or yeast to produce higher amount of amino acids, crude protein and true protein by using the maximum amount of substrate mixture, which...
