Summary
The fungusAureobasidium pullulans CBS 58475 can be fermented easily and economically in its yeast-like form. The enzyme production is strictly connected to biomass production. In continuous culture, at a dilution rate of D=0.085 h−1, the fungus shows a volumetric β-xylanase productivity of about 300 U/h·1.
