Yarrowia lipolytica: A model yeast for citric acid production
Every year more than 2 million tons of citric acid (CA) are produced around the world for industrial uses. Although initially extracted from citrus, the low profitability of the process and the increasing demand soon stimulated the search for more efficient methods to produce CA. Currently, most wor...

Every year more than 2 million tons of citric acid (CA) are produced around the world for industrial uses.
