Nitrile biotransformation by Aspergillus niger [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Catalysis B: Enzymatic, 2004 Abstract A nitrile-converting enzyme activity was induced in Aspergillus niger K10 by 3-cyanopyridine. The whole cell biocatalyst was active at pH 3–11 and hydrolyzed the cyano group into acid and/or amide functions in benzonitrile as well as in its meta - and para -substituted derivatives, cyanopyridines, 2-phenylacetonitrile and thiophen-2 ...

On the safety of Aspergillus niger - a review
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2002 Aspergillus niger is one of the most important microorganisms used in biotechnology. It has been in use already for many decades to produce extracellular (food) enzymes and citric acid. In fact, citric acid and many A. niger enzymes are considered GRAS by the United States Food and Drug Administration. In addition, A.
