Abstract

By combining induced mutation, using NTG and UV irradiation, and protoplasting of a wild type strain of Aspergillus oryzae ATCC 22788, a hyper-producing strain was obtained that accumulated 41 g kojic acid l(-1) in shake-flasks, which was 100-fold higher than that in the wild type strains. Similar production of kojic acid was obtained in 5 l stirred-tank fermentations.
