Popis: The review characterizes the submerged and solid state fermentation processes (SF and SSF) for obtaining of microbial biomass protein (MBP) on cellulose- and lignin-containing (CL) agricultural wastes (straw, wine, branches of fruit trees). There are discussed other alternatives as well. The main technological parametres are presented (protein (biomass) yield, degree of available substrate utilization, process efficiency, etc.). The use of a special stirring system of the authors' design for mycelial cultures results in an increase of CL substrate concentration in the initial nutrient medium from 2% to 8%of dry matter (DM) and in a threefold increase of the specific productivity (from 0.07 g biomass/l · h to 0.21 g biomass/l · h). The technological parametres can be increased also in the processes with substrate addition. The obtained preparations are analyzed as to their usefulness for the feeds of ruminants.
