Single-step conversion of cephalosporin-C to 7-aminocephalosporanic acid by free and immobilized cells of Pseudomonas diminuta.
7-Aminocephalosporanic acid (7-ACA), the starting material for the production of a number of clinically used semisynthetic cephalosporins, is produced by deacylation of cephalosporin-C. The production of 7-ACA was studied in various modes, at the optimal conditions using free and immobilized whole cells of Pseudomonas diminuta.
