Abstract

Article Summary

The influence of dioctadecyl dimethylammonium chloride (DODAC) on bioconversion of molasses to ergot alkaloids by Claviceps purpurea BPS-1660 has been assessed. It has been found that micelle, i.e., dioctadecyl dimethylammonium chloride (DODAC) under trial has enhanced the yield of ergot alkaloids to an extent of 10.579% higher in comparison to control
