Provided herein are compositions and processes for producing compositions from an algae that overproduces protoporphyrin IX (PPIX). Also provided are methods of growing PPIX overproducing algae, methods of isolating PPIX-containing portions from algae cultures and compositions and methods of making food products with PPIX produced by algae. Provided herein are strains and methods to select strains that overproduce PPIX. Also provided are compositions, including edible compositions that include PPIX produced from algae. Specifically, the algal strain over-producing PPIX is an engineered strain of The algal biomass may be used for preparing meat analogues wherein the PPIX compound imparts a meat-like colour and flavour.

Provided is a composition comprising a) butyrate and b) a by-product of fermentation of a carbon source-containing feedstock with a Clostridia class bacterium which natively produces butyric acid. Further provided are a feed ingredient, an animal feed and an anti-icing product comprising the composition, methods of manufacturing and uses thereof.

A process controlling development of at least two predetermined metabolites in a fermented product comprising at least one plant material and/or at least one seaweed material, the process comprising the steps of: (i) Determining the at least 2 predetermined metabolites to be developed in the fermented product; (ii) Based on the predetermined metabolites determined in step (i) selecting at least one plant material and/or the at least one seaweed material; (iii) Based on the predetermined metabolites determined in step (i) selecting at least one fermenting organism; (iv) Mixing the at least one plant material and/or the at least one seaweed material selected in step (ii) with the at least one fermenting organism selected in step (iii) in a fermentation reactor providing a fermentation mixture; (v) Allowing the fermentation mixture to ferment under fermentation conditions favoring development of the at least two predetermined metabolites; whereby the fermented product is provided.

Improvement of the intestinal health of a monogastric animal by increasing the levels of cecal butyrate levels in situ in said animal by administering a GH30 glucuronoxylan hydrolase-enriched maize-based animal feed is described. Improving the feed conversion ratio of said animal feed is furthermore observed.
