RESEARCH OF INVERTASE ACTIVITY WHEN CHANGING THE PARAMETERS OF THE FERMENTATION PROCESS SUGAR-MINERAL MEDIUM AND HYDROLYSATE OF STARCH BY THE MICROMYCETE Aspergillus niger by Anastasia A. Printseva, Natalya Yu Sharova, Tatyana V. Vybornova

“…The most preferred regimes for conducting the biotechnological process are: the age of the inoculated mycelium is 24 h, the fermentation temperature for the sugar-mineral medium is32 °C and for starch hydrolysate is29 °C.For the Aspergillus niger strain L-4, the extracellular invertase activity for 120 h of the biotechnological process as a result of the fermentation of the sugar-mineral medium was (0,847 ± 0,068) u/cm3 of the native solution, and for strain B-3 — (0,966 ± 0,077) u/cm3 of the native solution, respectively.During fermentation of the medium, based on starch hydrolysate, extracellular invertase activity for strain L-4 was (1,379 ± 0,097) u/cm3 of native solution, and for strain B-3 — (1,597 ± 0,144) u/cm3 of native solution, respectively.The strains of the fungus Aspergillus niger L-4 and B-3 when cultivated on a sugar-mineral medium and medium, based on starch hydrolysate, have the ability to synthesize enzymes with invertase activity, the invertase activity of strain B-3 at the end of the process higher. …”
