Development of fermentation process for EPA production: The effect of fungal growth conditions on morphology and EPA production. Fungal pellets in submerged culture vary in size, texture and shape: from ellipsoidal ball shape to a biconcave “doughnut” shaped pellet with a central cavity. In larger pellets, autolysis of central mycelia occurs due to limitations on nutrient and oxygen diffusion.
