Isolation and Screening of Cellulolytic Fungi
A large number of microorganisms are capable of degrading cellulose, only a few of these microorganisms produce significant quantities of enzymes capable of completely hydrolyzing cellulose. Fungi are the main cellulase producing microorganisms. In this purposed study, four fungal species belonging to two genera i.e. Trichoderma and Aspergillus were isolated from different sources, screened and...
متن کاملUtilizing Anaerobic Fungi for Two-stage Sugar Extraction and Biofuel Production from Lignocellulosic Biomass
Lignocellulosic biomass is a vast and underutilized resource for the production of sugars and biofuels. However, the structural complexity of lignocellulosic biomass and the need for multiple pretreatment and enzymatic steps for sugar release renders this process economically challenging. Here, we report a novel approach for direct, single container, exogenous enzyme-free conversion of lignocel...
متن کاملISEN METAGENOMIC DISCOVERY OF NOVEL LIGNIN - DEGRADING FUNGI FOR BIOFUEL PRODUCTION Louise
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The bio-conversion of plant lignocellulose to glucose is an key component of second generation biofuel production, but the resistance of lignin to breakdown is a major obstacle in this process. Filamentous fungi possess the unique ability to decompose the aromatic lignin polymers using enzymes encoded by divergent gene families. White-rot fungi are the primary lignin-d...
متن کاملFungal fermentation on anaerobic digestate for lipid-based biofuel production
BACKGROUND Anaerobic digestate is the effluent from anaerobic digestion of organic wastes. It contains a significant amount of nutrients and lignocellulosic materials, even though anaerobic digestion consumed a large portion of organic matters in the wastes. Utilizing the nutrients and lignocellulosic materials in the digestate is critical to significantly improve efficiency of anaerobic digest...
متن کاملComparative genomics of xylose-fermenting fungi for enhanced biofuel production.
Cellulosic biomass is an abundant and underused substrate for biofuel production. The inability of many microbes to metabolize the pentose sugars abundant within hemicellulose creates specific challenges for microbial biofuel production from cellulosic material. Although engineered strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae can use the pentose xylose, the fermentative capacity pales in comparison with...
