Abstract

In the present work, bio-conversion studies were performed on gallic acid, an important precursor for pharmaceutical industries engaged in manufacture of trimethoprim. Microbiological hydrolysis of two gallotanin rich substrates Chebulic myrobalan and Emblic myrobalan was studied by two fungal strains Aspergillus niger MTCC 281 and Rhizopus oryzae MTCC 1987. Comparative studies were performed using shake flask technique in different variations; high yield of gallic acid was produced by Aspergillus niger from Chebulic myrobalan.
