Abstract
The effect of various concentrations of glutamate on arachidonic acid (AA) production from Mortierella alpina in shaker flask culture was studied. Glutamate supplementation promoted Mortierella growth, accelerated substrate metabolism, and increased AA production, and a concentration of 0.8 g/l glutamate resulted in the greatest AA yield (1.41 g/l). In 10 l airlift stirred fermenter culture, AA yield in the cultures exposed to 0.8 g/l glutamate was also greater than that in the control (0.56 g/l).
