Citric acid fermentation by mutant strain of Aspergillus niger GCMC-7using molasses based medium
Citric acid fermentation of cane-molasses by submerged fermentation in 15 L stirred fermentor (working volume 9 L) was carried out. A hyper mutant strain of Aspergillus niger GCMC-7 was used in the present study which was obtained from the culture collection of our own labs. Ferrocyanide treated mol...
