Abstract
A process for preparing a composition comprising biomass from Aspergillus and bioactive compounds, the process including culturing Aspergillus in a liquid medium comprising an assimilable carbon source and inorganic nutrients. The culturing process includes (i) a fermentation under aerobic conditions followed by (ii) a fermentation under stress conditions comprising hypoxic stress and pH stress conditions. Compositions obtainable by this process and food or feed supplements containing the compositions are also provided.
Claims21
A process for preparing a composition comprising biomass from a non-pathogenic Aspergillus and bioactive compounds, the process comprising culturing the non-pathogenic Aspergillus in a liquid medium comprising an assimilable carbon source and inorganic nutrients, wherein the culturing comprises:
- (i) a first fermentation under aerobic conditions, and
- (ii) a second fermentation under stress conditions comprising hypoxic stress and pH stress conditions.
