Abstract: | The production of gluconic acid was carried out with high catalase containing Aspergillus niger mutant. This osmofil strain enables to convert the concentrated solutions of D-glucose (300g/l) to D-gluconic acid without gasing using hydrogen peroxide as oxygen source. A controlled addition of hydrogen peroxide based on the pO2 measurement was performed. The conversion of 300g/l glucose solution was achieved with 7 hours and triple conversion (with biomass recycling) within 27 hours with yield with regard to the substrate over 98%. Kinetics of inactivation of glucose oxidasecatalase complex as a whole was examined. Some general factors influencing the inactivation of glucose oxidase and catalase in mycelium are discussed. |
