 Abstract

The invention relates to a method for the production of a fermentation product from an organism cultured in a culture medium, wherein the organism after the formation of the fermentation product is subjected to a lysis treatment in the presence of a lysis-promoting compound. In accordance with the invention, the lysis-promoting agent is a compound that can be metabolised by the organism, and the method comprises the steps of treating the organism at a first, relatively high concentration of the lysis-promoting compound, separating the lysis-promoting agent and the fermentation product, and culturing the organism at a second, relatively low concentration of the metabolisable lysis-promoting agent.
