Biomass of Aspergillus Niger: Uses and Applications
Journal Title: Journal of Reports in Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Fungal biomass of A. Niger, the byproduct of citric acid fermentation, proved to be a worth biomaterial which can be so beneficial and practical. In environmental case, it can be a useful biosorbent for decolorization and detoxitation of wastewater samples. It can also be used as a cheap and suitable source for commercial production of some expensive and useful biopolymers such as chitin, chitosan and food supplements such as chitin-glucan and glucosamine.
