  • Title: Riboflavin production by Aspergillus terreus from beet-molasses.
    Author: Sabry SA, Ghanem KM, Ghozlan HA.
    Journal: Microbiologia; 1993 Dec; 9(2):118-24. PubMed ID: 8172689.
    Abstract:
    Aspergillus terreus was used for riboflavin (vitamin B2) production in a medium containing beet molasses as the sole carbon source. Growth and the vitamin production of the fungus were markedly affected by the composition of the culture medium. A maximum riboflavin yield was achieved at the late exponential growth phase (16 day-old cultures) in the presence of (g/l): centrifuged beet-molasses, 90; L-asparagine, 1; MgSO4.7H2O, 0.5; K2HPO4/kH2PO4 (1:1), 5; and the medium initially adjusted to pH 8.
