Polyol pools inAspergillus niger [PDF]
The accumulation and excretion of polyols was investigated under various growth conditions and at different stages of the life cycle of Aspergillus niger. Glycerol was found to be the major solute in osmotic adjustment of the hyphae. Conidiospores contain large amounts of mannitol, which are rapidly metabolized during early germination, leading to the ...

Construction of an improved Aspergillus niger platform for enhanced glucoamylase secretion
BackgroundThe lifestyle of filamentous fungi depends on the secretion of hydrolytic enzymes into the surrounding medium, which degrade polymeric substances into monomers that are then taken up to sustain metabolism.

Tannase Production by Aspergillus niger [PDF]
A method for assay of microbial tannase (Tannin acyl hydrolase) based on the formation of chromogen between gallic acid and rhodanine is reported. Maximum Tannase production occurred in the culture broth containing 1‐2% (w/v) tannic acid and 0.05 – 0.1% (w/v) glucose.

In nature, the fungus Aspergillus niger degrades plant biomass polysaccharides to monomeric sugars, transports them into its cells, and uses catabolic pathways to convert them into biochemical building blocks and energy. We show that when grown in liquid

Biopolymers are sustainable, biodegradable alternatives to petroleum‐based plastics for food packaging. Its adoption is often limited by poor mechanical strength, barrier properties, and improved thermal stability through the incorporation of nanofillers.
