A New Metabolic Regulator : its Stimulation of Citric Acid Production and Anti-sulphon-amide and Streptomycin Effect

ALTHOUGH at present many data are available concerning the production of citric acid by fungi 1–5 , very little is known of the mechanism by which the production of this acid is regulated. Its production in Aspergillus niger varies greatly with the strain and the medium 6,7 . The same strain, under...

Zusammenfassung:ALTHOUGH at present many data are available concerning the production of citric acid by fungi 1–5 , very little is known of the mechanism by which the production of this acid is regulated. Its production in Aspergillus niger varies greatly with the strain and the medium 6,7 . The same strain, under various conditions, is capable in one case of converting practically all the sugar available into citric acid; in another case production is decreased by the conditions of the reaction practically to zero.
