PROCESS FOR PRODUCING ERYTHRITOL USING MONILIELLA TOMENTOSA STRAINS IN THE PRESENCE OF INORGANIC NITRATES AS NITROGEN SOURCE

The present invention relates to the use of at least one inorganic nitrate in a fermentation process for producing erythritol using a yeast strain of the Moniliella species as an erythritol-producing microorganism characterized in that the at least one inorganic nitrate is simultaneously used as a m...

Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to the use of at least one inorganic nitrate in a fermentation process for producing erythritol using a yeast strain of the Moniliella species as an erythritol-producing microorganism characterized in that the at least one inorganic nitrate is simultaneously used as a main nitrogen source and as a pH regulator in the culture medium, as well as to such an improved method for producing erythritol.
