beta-Glucan production of Botryosphaeria rhodina on undiluted olive-mill wastewaters

摘要

Botryosphaeria rhodina produced beta-glucan when grown on undiluted olive-mill wastewaters (OMW).The production of exopolysaccharide increased with the COD up to 17.2 g l~(-1) on the most loaded OMW (151 and 66 g l~(-1) of COD and total sugar,respectively).The total phenol content of OMW was reduced from 8 to 4.1 g l~(-1).
