abstract

cellulolytic complex are enzymes capable of hydrolyzing cellulose. due to rapid growth in population and industrialization, most countries are required to produce more fuel. production of bioethanol from lignocellulosic biomass is very challenging due to environmental pollution by fossil fuels. cellulases play a significant role in biotechnological processes. the cost of production of cellulase is very high. approximately 50% of the cost of producing bioethanol is used to produce cellulose. gibberellin regulates the growth of fungi and plants. cellulase production was significantly improved by gibberellins hormone. the cellulase activity was 4.29 fpu/ml (when we used 50 μmol/ml of gibberellins in culture medium). this was 12- fold higher (0.34 fpu/ml in control solution) compare with untreated hormone and was comparable to that achieved with concentrated by n- butanol. in this experiment, the enzyme activity was increased 223- fold higher compare with control solution.

Cellulase Production by Trichoderma reesei using Sugar Beet Pulp

Cellulase production by the fungus Trichoderma reesei was studied using sugar beet pulp (SBP) as a substrate. The subculture medium was a salt solution consisting of KH2PO4, CaCl2, etc. Fungal cells were sub-cultured in an orbital shaker (180 rpm) at 30°C for 1-2 generations (two days for each generation) and were then used as an inoculum. Exponential cells were inoculated into a medium contain...

Production of Cellulase-free Xylanase by Trichoderma Reesei Saf3

A xylanase producing fungi has been isolated from soil and identified as Trichoderma reesei SAF3. Maximum growth of the organism was found at 48 h under submerged condition in xylan containing enriched medium, whereas highest enzyme production (4.75U/mL) was recorded at 72 h. No detectable cellulase activity was noted during whole cultivation period. The partially purified enzyme hydrolyzed xyl...

Application of Statistical Design for the Production of Cellulase by Trichoderma reesei Using Mango Peel

Optimization of the culture medium for cellulase production using Trichoderma reesei was carried out. The optimization of cellulase production using mango peel as substrate was performed with statistical methodology based on experimental designs. The screening of nine nutrients for their influence on cellulase production is achieved using Plackett-Burman design. Avicel, soybean cake flour, KH(2...

Solid-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...
