This study investigated the effect of cultivation parameters on microbial oil production from hydrolysate of oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) using fungus Mucor plumbeus. The parameters selected for evaluation were sugar concentration (30–100 g/L), yeast extract concentration (0–13.3%, g yeast extra...
