Abstract
In this study citric acid production was carried by using banana waste from Aspergillus niger. Effect of different carbon and nitrogen sources like glucose, sucrose, yeast extract and peptone were studied on production. Citric acid production was recorded from 3rd day of incubation upto 5th day. The percentage of citric acid ranged from 0.028% to 0.480% maximum production was obtained from glucose as carbon source i.e; 0.480% on 5th day and maximum production was obtained from yeast extract as nitrogen source i.e; 0.168% on 5th day. Keywords: Citric acid, Aspergillus niger
