Selection of filamentous fungi for conversion of high concentrations of biodiesel-derived glycerin

Biodiesel-derived glycerin is a potential biotechnological substrate, but its bioconversion depends on finding resistant microbial strains, once this effluent can be inhibitory for growth. A total of 58 microbial isolates from 26 samples of soil, rotten leaves, and other fallen plant materials or contaminated foods, survived an enrichment selection performed at 25% of biodiesel-derived glycerin. Aspergillus sp. T7.1, Penicillium sp. T2.1 and T6.2 grew in submerged processes adjusted for citric acid production, at a final concentration of 100 g .
