UNIBIO Uniprotein®


– the future in animal feed


U n i b i o i s a D a n i s h biotechnology company with a core focus on fermentation technologies, allowing a highly


scalable production of microbial single cell protein. Unibio´s unique fermentation technology is called the U-Loop®


technology and is a result of a natural process occurring in nature every day which is transformed into a bioindustrial setting. Uniprotein®


, the end-product resulting from Unibio’s U-Loop®


technology, is a protein-rich ingredient which can be used in feed for all animals. Uniprotein®


is grown by aerobic fermentation of methane


with the use of four different bacterial strains with the methanotrophic bacterium Methylococcus capsulatus being the major one. The bacterial biomass is heat-treated for a short period of time to sterilize the product and then spray-dried to a powder or pellet product with a nutrient content of approximately 70% crude protein, 9% crude fat, 9% ash and 8% nitrogen-free extracts with a dry matter content of 94%. As a protein ingredient for animal feed, Uniprotein®


is very comparable to


the composition of premium fishmeal with a similar amino acid profile in the essential amino acids. The challenge of feeding the increasing global population is


rooted in a combination of limited land and the possibility of feeding the rising population in a sustainable manner that addresses the world’s growing need for animal protein which will continue to increase in line with population growth and the emergence of a large middle class with strong purchasing power. Thus, new alternative protein sources as microbial single cell protein will be needed and applied as a close substitute to premium fishmeal, but can also substitute soybean meal, both being two increasingly scarce resources. The microbial single protein Uniprotein®


is the result of a natural


process industrialized by Unibio and is not genetically modified. Uniprotein®


is a non-polluting and sustainable protein ingredient as


methane is used as the sole carbon and energy source, providing minimum dependence on soil, water and climate. This novel protein source disrupts the traditional food value


chain while mitigating the traditional challenges by decoupling protein production from the fluctuating agriculture and stressed fishing industries. Crop and land can thus be used to produce food for humans instead of feed for animals. The ambition of Unibio is to become the world market leader


within protein production based on methanotrophic bacteria, partly by own production and partly by licensing the production technology to international investors wishing to establish large-scale production plants of Uniprotein®


using the surplus gas from oil production. For more information about Uniprotein®
