Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To select high Lovastatin-producing microbial breed by space flight. METHOD: Monascus purpureus species was carried into space by the recoverable spaceship, "Shenzhou 3". After flight, the strain was rejuvenized, segregated and selected. The content of Lovastatin produced in the solid fermentation was examined. RESULT: Mutants with high productivity of Lovastatin were obtained. A series of tests showed...
