Zusammenfassung: | A biomass comprising filamentous fungus, wherein said biomass has an L* of at least 70.0. Also disclosed is a method of producing a biomass having increased L* comprising: (i) fermenting cells of a filamentous fungus to produce a biomass; (ii) adjusting the pH of the biomass to increase the L* of the biomass. Further disclosed is the use of an acid and/or increased temperature to increase whiteness and/or increase L* of a biomass produce by fermentation. A product produced by such a method can be a foodstuff. The biomass can have an L* value in the range of 75.0-95.0, a* in the range of -1.0-2.9, b* in the range of 0.5-14.0, and a pH in the range of 2.0-6.0. |
