Production of Cellulases by Aspergillus Heteromorphus from Wheat Straw under Submerged Fermentation
نویسندگان
چکیده
To investigate the production of cellulases from Aspergillus heteromorphus, submerged fermentation was performed using wheat straw as substrate. Optimization of saccharification conditions like pH, temperature and time were studied. Highest reducing sugar was released on 5 day at 5 pH, 30 C temperature. When A. heteromorphous was grown on wheat straw in submerged fermentation after 5 days incubation at 30 0 C, 3.2 IU/ml and 83 IU/ml, filter paper activity and CMCase activity respectively. Keywords—Aspergillus heteromorphus, Wheat Straw, Submerged Fermentation, Production of Cellulases

Xylanase Production under Solid State Fermentation by Aspergillus niger
Central composite orthogonal design was applied to quantify relations of xylanase production, loss of dry matter and change of pH with four critical variables during solid state fermentation of a mixture of wheat bran and wheat straw on which Aspergillus niger CCUG 33991 was cultivated. The studied variables included the percentage of wheat straw, temperature, moisture content, and fermentati...
متن کاملEvaluation of Process Parameters Influencing Aflatoxin B1 Synthesis from Aspergillus flavus MTCC 2798 using Rice Straw under Submerged Fermentation
Aflatoxin is a toxic secondary metabolite produced by different species of Aspergillus in food crops when stored under hot and humid conditions. Among the various aflatoxins produced by fungi aflatoxin B1 has been proved to have carcinogenic, mutagenic, teratogenic and immunosuppressive effects. They often contaminate human food, animal feed and agricultural produce. Rice straw acts as a common...
متن کاملAmylase production from Aspergillus oryzae LS1 by solid-state fermentation and its use for the hydrolysis of wheat flour
Nine Aspergillus and three of Trichoderma strains were grown on wheat bran (WB) medium under solid state fermentation (SSF) for amylase production. Aspergillus oryzae LS1 produced the highest level of the enzyme. The thermal stability profile of its crude enzyme revealed the half-life time of more than 2 h at 50 and 60ºC. The enzyme production was affected by strain type, incubation periods, le...
متن کاملSolid-State Fermentation with Trichoderma reesei for Cellulase Production.
Cellulase yields of 250 to 430 IU/g of cellulose were recorded in a new approach to solid-state fermentation of wheat straw with Trichoderma reesei QMY-1. This is an increase of ca. 72% compared with the yields (160 to 250 IU/g of cellulose) in liquid-state fermentation reported in the literature. High cellulase activity (16 to 17 IU/ml) per unit volume of enzyme broth and high yields of cellul...
