Influence of carbon source and the fermentation process on levan production by Zymomonas mobilis analyzed by the surface response method Influência da fonte de carbono e do processo fermentativo na produção de levana por Zymomonas mobilis analisada pela metodologia de superfície de resposta

The aim of this study is to assess sugar cane juice and sucrose as substrates, the batch and fed batch processes and their interaction in the levan production using a complete factorial design. Zymomonas mobilis was cultivated in different sugar cane juice and sucrose concentrations in two fermentat...
