Continuous gluconic acid production by Aureobasidium pullulans with and without biomass retention

New alternative processes for the continuous production of gluconic acid by Aureobasidium pullulans, using biomass retention by cell immobilization or cross over filtration, are described in the present work. 315 g/l gluconic acid was continuously produced in chemostat cultures at 21 hrs residence t...
