摘要
A bioconversion process with Aspergillus parasiticus has been developed to enhance p‐hydroxylation activities with respect to aromatic substrates such as m‐terphenyl. Through modified growth conditions, we are improving product concentration, while streamlining fermentation and downstream processing requirements. We routinely carry out biosynthetic conversions with m‐terphenyl at the 300‐L scale and produce over 200 g of 4,4″‐dihydroxy‐m‐terphenyl at a concentration of 0.7 g/L in the fermentation vessel.
