“…This leads to a maximum yield on glucose of 1.07 g/g, but yields up to 0.88 g/g have been reported. 332 Final concentrations up to 240 g/L has been achieved in aerated fed-batch fermentations using A. niger, at a productivity of 1.4 g/(L h). 333 In this case no yield was reported, though.…”

“…The pathway consumes O 2 to regenerate the NADH that is formed during glycolysis to NAD + , thus generating ATP. Besides this ATP, the overall pathway reaction is glucose + 1.5 normalO 2 → citric acid + 2 normalH 2 normalO This leads to a maximum yield on glucose of 1.07 g/g, but yields up to 0.88 g/g have been reported . Final concentrations up to 240 g/L has been achieved in aerated fed-batch fermentations using A. niger , at a productivity of 1.4 g/(L h) .…”

“…Surface fermentation has several benefits due to the less energy costs, easy installation and operation processes [29,101]. Therefore, surface fermentation results to fit better in small and medium-scale industries [105]. Generally, refined or crude sucrose, cane syrup, and beet molasses are the carbon sources employed [29,101].…”

Biorefineries are facilities in which lignocellulosic biomasses are converted in a wide range of bioproducts facilitating the transition from the use of petrochemical resources to renewable ones. Organic acids are considered very attractive for their utilization in different industrial areas as building blocks or as final bioproducts leading to a considerable market growth. They are metabolites which are naturally produced by microbials. The production of these molecules by filamentous fungi are attracting more attention due to their ability to hydrolyze lignocellulosic biomasses and to contextually produce different organic acids. Contrarily to a lot of other microorganisms, fungi have the ability to ferment pentoses, broadening the substrate utilization. The integrated use of lignocellulosic biomasses as material input and fungi as biocatalyst can contribute to make biorefineries more successful. This review gives an overview about the lignocellulosic biomass structure and hydrolysis, fungal morphology, and how they are connected. Further, it describes some relevant organic acids with regard to their processes, biocatalysts, industrial applications, and market considerations.

“…Dentre as enzimas amilolíticas, a mais importante é a α-amilase, pois desempenha um papel fundamental na conversão do amido em produtos de baixa massa molecular, que podem ser utilizados por outras enzimas do mesmo grupo. As enzimas amilolíticas são amplamente aplicadas em processos biotecnológicos, tais como nas indústrias têxteis, de papel e celulose, de couro, detergentes, bebidas destiladas, cervejas, panificação, cereais para alimentação infantil, liquefação e sacarificação do amido, ração animal, indústria química e farmacêutica (SPIER et al, 2004;PANDEY et al;SOCCOL et al, 2005).…”

Aspergillus is a genus of molds named after the morphological structure that bears asexual spores, the aspergillum, which resembles a liturgical device. This genus contains several species of positive or negative economic importance in industry, agriculture and medicine. The majority of aspergilli, including most species of economic importance, are known to reproduce only by asexual spores. Genome projects have been completed for A. fumigatus, A. nidulans, A. niger and A. oryzae; several other species are also being sequenced. The data from these genome projects have been useful in elucidating aspects of phylogeny, the evolution of sexuality and the extent of secondary metabolite diversity. To date, however, the impact on drug discovery, diagnosis of aspergillosis, and our understanding of fungal pathogenesis has been less pronounced.
