Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Lovastatin from the Wheat Bran Obtained after Solid-State Fermentation
The objective of the present work is to extract lovastatin with minimum impurity by using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2). A strain of Aspergillus terreus UV 1617 was used to produce lovastatin by solid-state fermentation (SSF) on wheat bran as a solid substrate. Extraction of lovastatin and i...
