Optimization of Modified Media & Comparative Production of Citric Acid by Aspergillus niger | Chapter 8 |Innovations in Microbiology and Biotechnology Vol.4

 Aspergillus niger was used for submerged citric acid synthesis to study high yield citric acid producers other than citrus fruits. In a comparison investigation, rice and potato extracts were employed as substrates to see which one provided the best yield. Various doses of Sucrose, Glucose, and Nitrogen supplements were used to track changes in citric acid synthesis output. Titration of citric acid extracted from various medium was used to assess the concentration of citric acid produced. To establish the ideal conditions for enhanced citric acid production output, a comparison study was done. By collecting soil samples from the Garden of Dayanand Science College in Latur, Maharashtra, and isolating citric acid-producing fungi (Aspergillus niger) on PDA medium as pure culture, as well as cultivation on modified broth medium, this study can provide a better approach for large-scale industrial production of citric acid, which is one of the most widely consumed organic acids.
