Itaconic acid, a sustainable alternative to petrochemical products, is used in plastics, resins, and biofuels. The study examines key fermentation parameters, including pH, temperature, and aeration, to maximize yield while controlling Dry Cell Weight (DCW). Findings reveal that manganese concentration significantly affects production, providing strategies to enhance industrial-scale yields. The research also highlights the potential impact of manganese leaching from bioreactors in industrial settings.50enAspergillus terreusItaconic AcidFermentation parametersMn²⁺ IonsEngineering SciencesBiologyHozzáférhető a 2022 decemberi felsőoktatási törvénymódosítás értelmében.
