description |
Biovanillin is one of fungi secondary metabolites, that is widely used as aromatic and flavour compound with high fiscal value. The use of vanillin as flavour for various products is its foremost application in food industries. The global market demand for natural vanillin as flavour stands for less than one percent (1%) of its market demand annually. However, most of the flavour compounds are normally obtained through the process of chemical synthesis, which could cause health problem and environmental hitches. Demand for natural and healthy products coupled with the fact that acid ferulic (FA) extracted from plant materials can be a precursor for biovanilin production makes it relatively inexpensive as a natural product. The research was aimed to extract FA from lemongrass leaves (LGL), which was used as precursor for one-step biovanillin production by Phanerochaete chrysosporium (ATCC 24725) in batch culture. Initially, optimization of the LGL pretreatment practices using liquid hot water with sodium bisulfite (0.5% w/v) towards the release of the FA was investigated with central composite design (CCD).
