Biotechnology Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

During the main period of citric acid fermentation byAspernillus niger product formation is easily determinable from oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide output rates. This was applied in a study on the response of citrate formation to shifts of some environmental parameters of known importance during fermentation.
