Filamentous microorganisms are used as molecular factories in industrial biotechnology. In
2007, a new approach to improve productivity in submerged cultivation was introduced …

Filamentous fungi are well-known for their ability to form mycelial pellets during submerged
cultures, a characteristic that has been extensively studied and applied. However …

Liquid submerged fermentation is an effective strategy to achieve large-scale production of
active ingredients by macrofungi, and controlling mycelium morphology is a key factor …

Filamentous fungi are important cell factories for the production of high-value enzymes and
chemicals for the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. Under submerged …

Monascus spp. are commercially important fungi due to their ability to produce beneficial
secondary metabolites such as the cholesterol-lowering agent lovastatin and natural food …

Fungal hyphae self-assemble a variety of cellular macrostates, ranging from suspended
mycelium to dense pellets, all inextricably linked to their productivity. In this study, using …

Lovastatin is a blood cholesterol reduction medicine and can be produced as a fungal
secondary metabolite. Although the industrial production of lovastatin is generally achieved …

Lovastatin is a blood cholesterol-lowering agent and is produced as a secondary metabolite
by Aspergillus terreus. Microbial production of this drug is carried out in solid-state or …

This study explored the impact of elicitors (sodium alginate (SA), microbial contamination in
the form of Bacillus cereus (MC), and cholesterol) on the synthesis of lovastatin,(+)-geodin …
