Biotransformation of (L)-citronellal to (L)-citronellol by free and immobilized Rhodotorula minuta

This paper reports biotransformation of (L)-citronellal to (L)-citronellol using free and immobilized cells of Rhodotorula minuta. The culture preparation variables such as pH, temperature and incubation period for obtaining maximum cell growth of R. minuta were optimized. The optimized culture cond...
