Valorization of Fruit and Vegetable Wastes for CA Production: A Comprehensive Review with Emphasis on Aspergillus niger Bioprocessing and Future Prospects
Abstract: Citric Acid (CA) is a multifunctional organic acid with diverse industrial applications, recently gaining prominence in polymer and composite science as a green crosslinker, compatibilizer, and functional additive. Conventionally produced through submerged fermentation of refined sugars by Aspergillus niger, industrial CA production faces sustainability challenges due to reliance on food-grade substrates. This review highlights emerging strategies for CA biosynthesis from vegetable and fruit processing residues—including cucumber peels, broccoli stalks, spinach …

Effect of Different Incubation Times on the Effectiveness of Oyster Mushrooms Towards the Growth of Some Fungal Isolates
Abstract: The study was conducted by preparing the filtrate of the oyster mushroom Pleurotus ostreatus, where the effectiveness of the fungal filtrate prepared from growing the fungus in the liquid Potato Dextrose Broth (PDB) medium was selected for two different periods (14, 28 days) in inhibiting some types of fungi (Aspergillus Spp : Aspergillus niger ،Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus terreus) and some types of fungi (Candida Spp: Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Candida …

Isolation and Evaluation of Aspergillus Niger : A Fungi Implicated in Infectious Diseases and its application as potential Biofertilizer
Abstract: In the quest to improve the agronomic effectiveness of Rock Phosphate (RP), a widely available and cost-effective phosphate fertilizer, this study aimed to overcome its limited solubility by isolating fungal strains capable of solubilizing rock phosphate. Soil samples were collected from Garhmukteshwar, Hapur, for the isolation process. Among several isolates, three strains exhibited the highest rock phosphate solubilization within a seven-day timeframe, coinciding with a significant decrease in soil pH. …
