CALCIUM FUMARATE

Peng Wang and colleagues found that the GC1 strain (∆gox, in which the GOX gene encoding glucose oxidase which could transform glucose into gluconic acid was removed) of A. pullulans var. aubasidani DH177 had the high ability to utilize xylose and corncob-derived xylose with CO2 fixation derived from CaCO3 to produce calcium fumarate^[1].
