    Abstract:
    In this study, corn steep liquor powder (CSL) was used as nitrogen source to replace the relatively costly yeast extract typically used for the production of succinic acid with Actinobacillus succinogenes NJ113. Moreover, when heme was added to the fermentation medium and the culture was agitated at a low speed, a maximum succinic acid concentration of 37.9 g/l was obtained from a glucose concentration of 50 g/l, and a productivity of 0.75 g/l/h was achieved. These yields are almost as high as for fermentation with glucose and yeast extract. These results suggest that heme-supplemented CSL may be a suitable alternative nitrogen source for a cost-effective method of producing succinic acid with A. succinogenes NJ113 while consuming less energy than previous methods.
