title: Effect of Fungal Metabolism on Zn Minerals Formation: The Case of Aspergillus niger and Penicillium chrysogenum
abstract: Soil fungi are significantly resistant to heavy metals, which allows them to be used in biotechnologies for environmental bioremediation. In order to clarify the prospects for using the fungi in Zn-detoxifying technologies, we investigated in vitro the effect of fungal metabolism on Zn minerals formation. The cultivation of fungi with different acid-producing activities (Aspergillus niger and Penicillium chrysogenum) was carried out in a liquid Czapek–Dox nutrient medium with Zn concentrations f
