Kd. Rane et Ka. Sims, CITRIC-ACID PRODUCTION BY YARROWIA-LIPOLYTICA - EFFECT OF NITROGEN AND BIOMASS CONCENTRATION ON YIELD AND PRODUCTIVITY, Biotechnology letters, 18(10), 1996, pp. 1139-1144
Citric acid yields of Yarrowia lipolytica (NRRL Y-1095) grown on gluco
se ranged from 0.38-0.77 g/g and were dependent on both biomass and ni
trogen concentration (as NH4Cl and yeast extract). Increasing the biom
ass concentration by 3% (w/v) increased fermenter productivities from
0.6 to 1.22 g citric acid/L h.
