Summary
Torulopsis bombicola produced sophorose lipids when growing on sucrose in similar yields as if growing on glucose. Besides yield the composition of sophorose lipids characterized by TLC/FID was greatly influenced by yeast extract concentration in the shake flasks in contrary to highly aerated fermenter.
