Isolation and Identification of Glucoamylase Producer Fungus from Sago Hampas

Recovery of Glucose from Residual Starch of Sago Hampas for Bioethanol Production

Lower concentration of glucose was often obtained from enzymatic hydrolysis process of agricultural residue due to complexity of the biomass structure and properties. High substrate load feed into the hydrolysis system might solve this problem but has several other drawbacks such as low rate of reaction. In the present study, we have attempted to enhance glucose recovery from agricultural waste...

Bioconversion and Enzymatic Activities of Neurospora Sitophila Grown Under Solid State and Submerged Fermentation on Sago Hamps (RESEARCH NOTE)

N.sitophila was grown under controlled conditions of solid state and submerged fermentation on Sago hampas. The optimum conditions of protein enrichment previously established for sugar beet pulp was used for this study. Under this condition the protein content of Sago hampas under solid state increased from 1.4 to 14.45% (W/W) whereas for Sago hampas and Sago starch, the protein content under ...

ISOLATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF IRONSULPHUR OXIDZING THIOBACIULLI FROM IRAN ENVRONMENTS

Two hundred samples were taken from various sites in Iran, including coal storage areas, waste water in the Tabas and Zirab coal mines, and sulphur containing acid springs in Ramsar and Abask , and were screened for Thlobacillus ferruuxidans. During this investigation , seven strains were isolated which could oxidize sdphm , pyrite , thiosdphate and ferrous iron as the sole energy source. Macr...

Isolation and identification of halophilicbacteria from Urmia Lake in Iran

Halophiles are in all three domains of life: Archaea, Bacteria and Eucarya. Halophilic microorganisms in addition to form major part of life biodiversity can have many biotechnological applications. The objective of this research is isolation and identification of halophilic bacteria from Urmia Lake in Iran and the study of its bacterial biodiversity. After sampling of brines from Urmia Lake fr...
