background and objective: in the present study, bacillus polymyxa ncim no. 2539 was selected to utilize agro-industrial byproduct (orange peel) for amylase production under submerged fermentation conditions. material and methods: different agro-industrial byproducts like cane molasses, wheat bran, rice bran and orange peel were screened for maximum amylase production. amylase activitiy of bacil...

ABSTRACT: There is a growing demand for authentic products that provide sensory characteristics combined with health benefits current studies have focused on. This review addressed the technological aspects involved in producing craft beers and use of various fruits developing new higher added value. The information was collected by researching scientific databases such as Scopus, websites, CAP...

This study reports lovastatin production by solid state fermentation using pomegranate seeds as a substrate. Six different fungal strains and several agro-industrial wastes were selected and screened. Various physicochemical parameters were optimized to improve lovastatin productivity. Moreover, chemical mutation was system-atically employed to enhance lovastatin yield on selected strains. Prod...

Agro-industrial wastes are mainly composed of complex polysaccharides that might serve as nutrients for microbial growth and production of enzymes. The aim of this work was to study polygalacturonase (PG) production by Aspergillus niveus cultured on liquid or solid media supplemented with agro-industrial wastes. Submerged fermentation (SbmF) was tested using Czapeck media supplemented with 28 d...

Considering the current upward drift in farm use all over the world, the Russian agro-food market has immense possibilities to create such economic conditions under which the farming sector could develop dynamically. The increase in the grain production is of crucial importance for all agricultural branches. In this respect, the grain sector is Russia’s strategically significant economic segmen...

Lignocellulosic agricultural byproducts are a copious and cheap source for cellulose fibers. Agro-based biofibers have the composition, properties and structure that make them suitable for uses such as composite, textile, pulp and paper manufacture. In addition, biofibers can also be used to produce fuel, chemicals, enzymes and food. Byproducts produced from the cultivation of corn, wheat, rice...
