Abstract
The polymorphic fungus Aureobasidium pullulans ATHUM 2915, produced si gnificant quantities of extracellular polygalacturonase and polysaccha ride when grown, under controlled conditions, in liquid medium with pe ctin and glucose as carbon sources and nitrogen source as limited fact or. Growth, substrate consumption and products formation were simulate d by a structured mathematical model, which was compared with the expe rimental data from batch culture in a chemostat. This model was applie d successfully in the study of some essential parameters influenced th e process at various pH values.
