Abstract
A modified colorimetric technique automatized by an Alpkem micro-continuous flow analyser was described for estimating the concentration of L-tryptophan in fermentation broth. This approach provided a convenient alternative to HPLC for L-tryptophan estimation and may help to avoid the time-consuming and laborious screening work encountered in the strain improvement programme.
