abstract

in this study, urease production was investigated among thirteen strains of aspergillus niger seven strains isolated from soils of semnan province in iran and six strains obtained from persian type culture collection (ptcc). the enzyme production was screened in two submerged media quantitatively. the registered ptcc 5011 and the native s31 strains showed more urease production than the other eleven strains. the maximum enzyme productions by ptcc 5011 and s31 strains were 106 and 109 u.g-1dry mass in submerged culture, respectively. also, we used two solid media for screening all of the strains for urease production semi quantitatively. due to the acceptable correlations between the two methods, the latter can be used as an ancillary method to mass screening of urease production by filamentous fungi.

Production and Evaluation of Chitosan from Aspergillus Niger MTCC Strains

Three different Aspergillus Niger MTCC strains (872, 1785 and 2208) were used for the production of chitosan. Multivariate growth mediums in varying incubation periods were analyzed for the production. The produced chitosan was characterized by its physical appearance, moisture content (by means of gravimetric method), percentage of ash and solubility (through the Association of Official Agricu...

Solid State Fermentation for Production of Chitosan by Aspergillus Niger

The effect of Solid State Fermentation (SSF) on Chitosan production by A. niger was investigated. A. niger BBRC 20004 from Biochemical and Bioenvironmental Research Centre of Sharif University of Technology (Tehran, Iran), was grown on corn residue. Chitosan was extracted from the fungal mycelia using hot alkaline and acid treatment. A. niger was incubated for 12 days on corn residue with moist...

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...
