| Abstract: | The role of sesame oil as part of the carbon source on growth and cephalosporin C production byCephalosporium acremonium was studied in shake-flask fermentation. The growth and antibiotic production were maximum on the fifth and sixth day, respectively,
irrespective of the presence of sesame oil. Sesame oil enhanced cephalosporin C production by 54%. Analysis of fatty acid
profile indicated that C18∶1, C18∶2 and C18∶3 are the major fatty acids inC. acremonium. The percentage of C18∶2 was higher in the culture grown with sesame oil. |
