Optimization of levan production by Zymomonas mobilis
Effect of different fermentation conditions on levan production by Zymomonas mobilis B-4286 was studied. Levan production increased from 5.7-g/l to 12.6-g/l with an increase in initial sucrose concentration (50-150 g/l). Above 15% (20 and 25%) sucrose concentration, there was no increase in the biom...
