Abstract:
    A method for producing L-sorbose by microbiological oxidation of D-sorbitol which comprises adding D-sorbitol to a culture liquid in such a concentration that it does not go up to over about 5% during and after the growth phase of a microorganism used, while circulating a culture exhaust gas enriched with oxygen gas, and releasing a part of said exhaust gas out of the system. An apparatus for culturing microorganisms suitable for the method is also disclosed.
