TLDR
In order to develop a two-stage inoculum possessing the best conditions for the maximum production of all three enzymes, a multiresponse analysis was carried out using a generalized distance approach.

Optimization of biomass, pellet size and polygalacturonase production by Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235 using response surface methodology

TL;DR: A two-step optimization procedure using central composite design with four factors (concentrations of maltrin and corn steep liquor, agitation speed and inoculation ratio) was used to investigate the effect of these parameters on the polygalacturonase (PG) enzyme activity, mycelia growth (biomass) and morphology (pellet size) of Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235.

Production of pectolytic enzymes by Aspergillus niger: effect of inoculum size and potassium hexacyanoferrate II-trihydrate

TL;DR: A pronounced effect of KHCF on fungal morphology as well as on enzymatic activity was observed, and with increased concentration the morphology gradually changed from loose pellets to smaller compact ones.

Concomitant biosynthesis of Aspergillus niger pectolytic enzymes and citric acid on sucrose

TL;DR: Pectolytic enzymes were synthesized during the cultivation of Aspergillus niger in a medium with decationized commercial sugar and it was shown that the remaining extracellular soluble dry matter was due to citric acid, which had been produced in amounts of up to 60 g l −1 thus constituting a useful by-product.
