Abstract

10-Deoxoartemisinin at 0.2 mg ml−1 medium was transformed to 7β-hydroxy deoxoartemisinin by Mucor ramannianus growing on sucrose, 20 g l−1, and peptone, 10 g l−1, at pH 4 and 26 °C. The yield of product was increased from 16% to 45% by selecting optimal culture conditions using a 25−2 factorial design.
