Abstract
Combined with u.v. irradiation and the nitrosoguanidine method, selection of biochemical mutants resistant to metabolic inhibitors (2-deoxy-D-glucose, antimycin A, sodium orthovanadate and sodium azide) was a very efficient method for improvement of ribonuclease production by Aspergillus niger. Resistance to sodium azide produced highest RNase production, greatest frequency of positive mutation and shortest sporulation time. The most active strain, Aspergillus niger SA-13-20 resistant to sodium azide, was obtained, which had a 433% increase in RNase production in comparison with the parent strain and had good subculturing stability. Its dynamic characters were similar to those of the parent strain.
