Milk sugar, chemical structure

The structures of bacteria are extremely complex. Nitrogen in particular is distributed in many types of chemical structures, including proteins (amino acids), peptides, nucleic acids, and amino sugars [3, 4]. The amino acid content of bacteria is the best indicator of the overall nutritional utility to animals and humans. Component analyses and the amino acid content of methanol SCP, fish meal, soybean meal, and nonfat dried milk (NFDM) are listed in Tables 1 and 2, respectively [4, 10]. The protein content of methanol SCP is about 80%, which is much hi er than that of the other types of food meals. Furthermore, the overall quality of methanol SCP is very od. As a result, it has often been sold at a premium over alternative protein sources.
