Plant-derived protein hydrolysates and its use in animal cell technology

Agriculture and the food industry generate a large number of plant-based side products often applicable in the creation of wide diversity of new products. A good example is plant protein hydrolysates that can be used in food technology as well as in cosmetics and pharma biotechnology. The most common raw materials for the production of protein hydrolysates are oil-plant seeds and their derivatives called oil cakes. This work gives an overview of recent achievements in exploiting the leftover proteins from such materials for the production of protein hydrolysates. Protein content ranging from 15-50 % as well as the presence of various bioactive compounds make the oil cake a great source of nutrients. Therefore, we put focus on the preparation of hydrolysates and their application in animal cell technology. Given as a nutritional supplement to the cell culture, the hydrolysates have the potential to boost cell growth and productivity. With such benefits, the hydrolysates very often become an integral component in novel growth media formulations. This has a great impact on lowering the cost of bioprocessing as well as on bioprocess sustainability.
