Production of docosahexaenoic acid by a novel isolated Aurantiochytrium sp. 6-2 using fermented defatted soybean as a nitrogen source for sustainable fish feed development.

We focused on the production of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-containing microbial lipids by Aurantiochytrium sp. using of defatted soybean (DS) as a nitrogen source. Defatted soybean is a plant biomass that could provide a sustainable supply at a low cost.
