Abstract: | An improved process of hydrolysis of corn starch was adopted in the production of itaconic acid (IA), the aim was to decrease the unfermentable reducing sugar (RS) in the medium from the beginning of the fermentation and to increase the crystallization efficiency of IA from the fermentation broth.The glucose (GS) syrups saccharified by several combinations of glucoamylase and pullulanase were investigated and used as the carbohydrate source of the fermentation medium for the spore-initiated submerged fermentations experiments.Compared with the conventional process (with pullulanase controlled), the improved process decreased the RS residue in the fermentation broth from 3.01g/L to 1.35g/L and from 4.25g/L to 3.25g/L when the original RS of the medium were 100 and 120g/L, respectively.The crystallization efficiency of IA increased from 65% to 78.8% and from 69.58% to 82.81% with the original RS being 100 and 120g/L, respectively. |
