abstract

objective(s): although bacteria and molds are the pioneering microorganisms for production of many enzymes, yet yeasts provide safe and reliable sources of enzymes with applications in food and feed.   materials and methods: single xylanase producer yeast was isolated from plant residues based on formation of transparent halo zones on xylan agar plates. the isolate showed much greater endo-1, 4-β-xylanase activity of 2.73 iu/ml after optimization of the initial extrinsic conditions. it was shown that the strain was also able to produce β-xylosidase (0.179 iu/ml) and α-arabinofuranosidase (0.063 iu/ml). identification of the isolate was carried out and the endo-1, 4-β-xylanaseproduction by feeding the yeast cells on agro-industrial residues was optimized using one factor at a time approach. results: the enzyme producer strain was identified as aureobasidiumpullulans. based on the optimization approach, an incubation time of 48 hr at 27°c, inoculum size of 2% (v/v), initial ph value of 4 and agitation rate of 90 rpm were found to be the optimal conditions for achieving maximum yield of the enzyme. xylan, containing agricultural residues, was evaluated as low-cost alternative carbon source for production of xylanolytic enzymes. the production of xylanase enzyme in media containing wheat bran as the sole carbon source was very similar to that of the medium containing pure beechwoodxylan. conclusion: this finding indicates the feasibility of growing of a. pullulans strain sn090 on wheat bran as an alternate economical substrate in order for reducing the costs of enzyme production and using this fortified agro-industrial byproduct in formulation of animal feed.

Alkalistable endo-β-1,4-xylanase production from a newly isolated alkalitolerant Penicillium sp. SS1 using agro-residues

Thermostable and alkalitolerant xylanases have got intense research focus due to their vast applications in various industries including pulp and paper, food, feed, textile, biofuel, etc. In the present investigation, a Penicillum sp. SS1 isolated from degrading woody material was found to produce moderately thermoactive and alkalistable endo-β-1,4-xylanase (xylanase). Maximum xylanase producti...

Utilization of Agro-industrial Wastes for the Simultaneous Production of Amylase and Xylanase by Thermophilic Actinomycetes

Agro-industrial wastes such as sugarcane bagasse, wheat bran, rice bran, corn cob and wheat straw are cheapest and abundantly available natural carbon sources. The present study was aimed to production of amylase and xylanase simultaneously using agro-industrial waste as the sole carbon source. Seven thermophilic strains of actinomycete were isolated from the mushroom compost. Among of these, s...

The hydrolysis of agro-industrial residues by holocellulose-degrading enzymes

Holocellulose structures from agro-industrial residues rely on main and side chain attacking enzymes with different specificities for complete hydrolysis. Combinations of crude enzymatic extracts from different fungal species, including Aspergillus terreus, Aspergillus oryzae, Aspergillus niger and Trichoderma longibrachiatum, were applied to sugar cane bagasse, banana stem and dirty cotton res...
