摘要
Sodium gluconate and calcium gluconate methods are important techniques available for gluconic acid fermentation. The comparative analysis of these fermentations has been addressed using Aspergillus niger. The techniques are equally influenced by the spores age in slant growth, inoculum level in germination and production media, different levels of Fe, Cu, Zn and Mn. Sodium gluconate method is promising with respect to lesser time for slant age (3 d) and lesser time of fermentation (6 d) compared to the calcium gluconate method (slant age - 6 d, and time of fermentation 7 d).
