European Journal of Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology. 17https://doi.org/10.1007/BF00510425http://repository.elizadeuniversity.edu.ng/handle/20.500.12398/166The metabolic production of L-ornithine by an arg mutant of Acinetobacter Iwoffi using n-hexadecane as sole carbon source was studied. Time course experiments under optimised conditions showed that L-ornithine production was growth related, with maximum concentrations (10.5gl-1) accumulating in the late exponential phase of growth.enCarbonSourceOptimiseConditionMaximumConcentrationExponentialPhaseSole CarbonArticle
