摘要: Aspergillus niger is a widespread aerobic fungus that has been used for many different biotransformation of natural products. Monoterpenes, commonly used in pharmaceutical products, are those containing two isoprene unit terpene molecules and molecular derivatives. They are widespread in higher plants secrete tissue, and show a variety of biological activities. In this review, we summarize a number of processes that have been developed for the transformation of monoterpenes by the cultures of Aspergillus niger, and these results could lay the foundation for identifying new drug leads in the future.
