Cellulases in Ionic Liquids—The Long Term Stability of Aspergillus sp. Cellulase

چکیده

It is a well known fact that some ionic liquids (ILs) have the potential to dissolve crystalline, water-insoluble cellulose that could be used as a source of glucose and subsequently derived molecules. Nevertheless, in the presence of high IL concentrations, cellulase activity and, even more so, cellulase stability are still challenging difficulties that need to be overcome. Therefore four fungal cellulase preparations were assayed in the presence of 30% (v/v) of five different ILs. Thereby the cellulase from Aspergillus sp. (Sigma-Aldrich) was not only remarkably active (up to 28 U/mg in 30% (v/v) IL ([BMMIM]Cl)), but furthermore stayed active during several weeks in the presence of 60% (v/v) IL (up to 50% relative activity after 9 weeks).

Ionic Liquid Pretreatment and Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Wood Biomass

Pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass materials from poplar, acacia, oak, and fir with different ionic liquids (ILs) containing 1-alkyl-3-methyl-imidazolium cations and various anions has been carried out. The dissolved cellulose from biomass was precipitated by adding anti-solvents into the solution and vigorous stirring. Commercial cellulases Celluclast 1.5L and Accelerase 1000 have been us...

Cellulose hydrolysis and binding with Trichoderma reesei Cel 5 A and 1 Cel 7 A and their core domains in ionic liquid solutions

1 Ionic liquids (ILs) dissolve lignocellulosic biomass and have a high potential as pretreatment 2 prior to total enzymatic hydrolysis. ILs are, however, known to inactivate cellulases. In this 3 article, enzymatic hydrolysis of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and enzyme binding onto 4 the cellulosic substrate were studied in the presence of cellulose-dissolving ionic liquids. Two 5 different ...

PRODUCTION, RELEASE AND THERMAL CHARACTERIZATION OF CELLULOLYTIC ENZYME FROM CELLULOMONAS sp. STRAIN "0"

Cellulase production by a Cellulomonas sp., isolated in 1985 from forest humus soil along the border of the Caspian Sea in Iran, was investigated. This strain secreted endo-and exo-cellulases in the culture medium, but some of the enzymes produced remained cell membrane bound. Cell bound enzymes were released by various treatments. The highest amount of endo-glucanase (up to 95%) and exo-gl...
