The contents of chitin and glucan soluble in KOH in the mycelium of two species of Aspergillus (niger left at the production of citric acid) and giganteus mut. alba and in Phycomyces blakesleeanus were analysed. These organisms can be cultivated on the natural substrate using the brewery waste of the fermentation industry and glucose liquor left at the production of crystalline glucose. The obtained biomass measured in the amount of dry weight is by 60-200 percent greater than that obtained on synthetic nutrient media while the chitin content in such mycelia is the same (in Aspergillus) or slightly lower (in Phycomyces) in comparison with synthetic nutrient solutions
