ABSTRACT:
A method for producing (-)trans-2, 3-epoxysuccinic acid, which can be used as a good starting material for the sythesis of optically active compounds such as optically specific single .beta.-lactam antibiotics, characterized in that filamentous fungi capable of producing (-)trans-2,3-epoxysuccinic acid are cultured in liquid medium while either ammonia, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide is added to maintain the culture medium in a pH range of 5.0 to 7.5 throughout the culturing period.
