Optimization of beta-carotene production by Rhodotorula glutinis using high hydrostatic pressure and response surface methodology.

Abstract excerpt

Rhodotorula glutinis RG6 was treated by high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) of 300 MPa for 15 min for improving its ability of beta-carotene production. After the treatments of 5 repeated cycles, the mutant strain RG6p was obtained, beta-carotene production of which reached 10.01 mg/L, increased by 57.89% compared with 6.34 mg/L from parent strain RG6. To optimize the medium for beta-carotene fermentation by mutant...
