New research, 'Production of succinic acid at low pH by a recombinant strain of the aerobic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica,' is the subject of a report. "Biotechnological production of weak organic acids such as succinic acid is most economically advantageous when carried out at low pH. Among naturally occurring microorganisms, several bacterial strains are known to produce considerable amounts of succinic acid under anaerobic conditions but they are inefficient in performing the low-pH fermentation due to their physiological properties," scientists writing in the journal Biotechnology & Bioengineering report.
