The study explores the biological and metabolic mechanisms of Aspergillus niger in citric acid synthesis, examining how parameters like pH, temperature, and nutrient availability influence productivity. A special emphasis is placed on manganese (Mn) regulation, analyzing its impact on enzyme activity and citric acid output. The research also evaluates cost-effective substrates and eco-friendly practices, aiming to make citric acid production more sustainable. Ultimately, this work contributes valuable insights into optimizing microbial fermentation processes for industrial applications.50enAspergillus nigerCitric acidMn(II) effectEngineering SciencesBiologyHozzáférhető a 2022 decemberi felsőoktatási törvénymódosítás értelmében.
