Optimization of process parameters for alkaline protease production by Aspergillus versicolor PF/F/107
نویسنده
چکیده
Fungal strains isolated from poultry farm soil by Waksman serial dilution method were screened for alkaline protease production. Isolate PF/F/107, the most potent producer of alkaline protease was identified as Aspergillus versicolor. The isolate PF/F/107 showed highest activity in the optimized medium I at pH 9.0, temperature 35oC, with 1% wheat bran and 1% sodium nitrate incubated for 4 days.

Compatibility with commercial detergents and stain removal capability of Aspergillus versicolor protease
An alkalophilic fungal strain, Aspergillus versicolor PF/F/107 isolated from poultry farm produced alkaline protease at 40C and 9.0 pH. Protease showed compatibility with commercial detergents and retained 50-76% of its original activity at 40C in the presence of detergents in the following order: Ghadi, Ujalla, Surf excel, Ariel and Tide indicating its suitability for application in detergen...
متن کاملScreening of alkaline protease production by fungal isolates from different habitats of Sagar and Jabalpur district (M.P)
Fungal isolates were screened for alkaline protease production on casein containing agar plates and identified by clear zones of casein hydrolysis around colonies. Totally 141 fungal isolates were used in primary screening of alkaline protease and out of these, only 108 test fungi were found to produce alkaline protease activity as indicated by production of zone of casein hydrolysis around the...
متن کاملScreening and Optimization of Cultural Parameters for an Alkaline Protease Production by Aspergillus Terreus Gr. under Submerged Fermentation
An alkaline protease-producing fungus was screened from potato grown soil fields of Bangalore and identified as Aspergillus terreus gr. based on morphological and microscopic features. The selected growth medium contained casein (1%) as a sole source of carbon and nitrogen. The pH of the medium was adjusted to 10.0 using sodium carbonate in order to isolate alkalophilic fungi. The best process ...

Optimization of the fermentation medium for maximum alkaline protease production was carried out. Fifteen positive isolates were examined for their extent of alkaline protease production. The most potent producer was identified as Bacillus sp. The solid substrate screening showed that the combination of wheat straw and bean husk was the best one. The initial screening by using Plackett–Burman’s...

: World population has been continuously raised and therefore due to this fact new source of foods, particularly proteins, are in demand. In recent years, single cell protein has been considered as an accepted substitute for animal and plant proteins. In this study, single cell protein production was studied in a batch submerged culture using Aspergillus niger PTCC5012. Experimental design was ...
