Effects of Phenylglyoxal and N-ethylmaleimide Concentration on Mycophenolic Acid Production by ATCC16024.

Mycophenolic acid is a secondary extracellular metabolite of strains with numerous pharmaceutical properties such as antibiotic and immunosuppressive uses. The aim of this work is the survey of the effect of phenylglyoxal and n-ethylmaleimide concentration in culture medium on mycophenolic acid production by ATCC16024 was investigated. Batch submerged fermentation was performed in 250 mL shake f...
