Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for degrading DNA in a sample obtained by microbial fermentation or bio-transformation, comprising treating the sample with a combination of increased temperature and low pH. It also relates to a method for releasing DNA from a microbial cell, comprising incubating the microbial cell at a temperature of 45° C. to 55° C. for two to ten hours. Finally, the present invention provides a method for producing a product, comprising a step of releasing DNA from a microbial cell and degrading said DNA.
