Abstract
All of the 240 fungal isolates grown on a wheat bran substrate were capable of producing some riboflavin. 45 isolates yielded values in excess of 2 mg. per 100 g. of mold bran. Certain isolates of the genera Fusarium and Aspergillus were particularly outstanding. The highest yield of riboflavin, 5.8 rag. per 100 g. of mold bran, was obtained from a "gold" Aspergillus. Riboflavin synthesis appears to be rather common, at least in the molds studied.
