Lovastatin Production by Aspergillus terreus Using Agro-Biomass as Substrate in Solid State Fermentation.

Ability of two strains of Aspergillus terreus (ATCC 74135 and ATCC 20542) for production of lovastatin in solid state fermentation (SSF) using rice straw (RS) and oil palm frond (OPF) was investigated. Results showed that RS is a better substrate for production of lovastatin in SSF. Maximum producti...
