Isolation and Screening of Amylolytic Filamentous Fungi
Filamentous fungi are important due to their high enzymes production potential. Many enzymes produced by fungi have related to biotechnological applications in several industrial sectors. The purpose of this study was to isolate filamentous fungi from different sources and to screen for amylases production potential. Fifteen fungal isolates of three genera, Aspergilus, Penicillium and Trichoder...
متن کاملSusceptibility of food-contaminating Penicillium genus fungi to some preservatives and disinfectants.
Microscopic fungi are able to contaminate and deteriorate various food products and can subsequently cause health problems. Long usage of the same preservatives and disinfectants against spoilage fungi may lead to the development of fungal resistance to those chemicals. The objective of this study was to investigate the susceptibility of 3 Penicillium genus fungi, isolated from foodstuffs, to o...
متن کاملAuxithals Synthesized by Some Filamentous Fungi.
Since 1869 when RAULIN reported that Aspergilluts niger excreted some growth-promoting substances into its medium, a number of investigators have studied the phenomenon of auxithal synthesis by fungi. For a comprehensive review of this the reader is referred to FRIES (2) and SCHLENKER (7). The writers (5) have referred briefly to this subject; the present paper reports a more exhaustive study. ...
متن کاملScreening of Lovastatin Production by Filamentous Fungi
In the present study, 110 fungal strains of Persian Type Culture Collection (PTCC) including some selected strains isolated in various screening projects were tested for their potentiality to produce lovastatin, a competitive inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG-CoA reduc-tase), the rate-limiting enzyme of cholesterol biosynthesis. The fungal strains were cultivated in a t...
متن کاملPhylogenetic Relationships of Some Filamentous Cyanoprokaryotic Species
The polyphasic approach is the most progressive system that has been suggested for distinguishing and phylogenetically classifying Cyanoprokaryota (Cyanobacteria/Cyanophyta). Several oscillatorialean genera (Lyngbya, Phormidium, Plectonema, and Leptolyngbya) have problematic phylogenetic position and taxonomic state because of their heterogeneity and polyphyletic nature. To accurately resolve t...
