1. Single-cell protein (SCP) is the protein extracted from cultivated microbial biomass. Edible mushrooms, yeast cells, and blue-green algae provide high protein resources with some medicinal effects. SCP is available in the forms of fresh cells, dry cells, tablets, or extracts.
2. The use of biological methods for controlling plant diseases and pests is called biocontrol. This method has been replaced by the indiscriminate use of chemicals used in the chemical control of pests. The chemicals used for killing pests are toxic and extremely harmful to men and domestic animals. They also pollute the environment and our crop plants.
