A total of 384 day-old male Ross 308 broiler chicks were allocated to 8 dietary treatments to examine the influence of supplementation with xylanase and phytase, individually or in combination, in diets based on two new cultivars of triticale (Bogong and Canobolas). The inclusion of phytase alone in either Bogong or Canobolas diets increased (P < 0.01) feed intake and body weight; however, the ...

Background: The extracellular xylanase secreted by microorganisms is a hydrolytic enzyme, which arbitrarily cleaves the β-1, 4 backbone of the polysaccharide xylan; an enzyme used in the food processing, bio-pulping and bio-bleaching. The commercial production of the xylanase is limited because of a higher cost involvement, which can be overcome by the cost-effective production...

Xylanase production by a newly isolated Aspergillus niger SS7 was studied in submerged culture. The optimum initial pH for xylanase production was found to be 7.0. Different agricultural and industrial wastes were evaluated for their ability to induce xylanase production by this isolate. The best xylanase production (293.82 IU/ml) was recorded at 3% (w/v) corn cob hulls after 120 h of incubatio...

Although β-xylosidases with xylanase activity are preferential for the hydrolysis of xylan and production xylitol, reports on their use scarce. In this study, a multifunctional β-xylosidase (XYL4) was identified. addition to activity, XYL4 also exhibited low α-arabinosidase activity. The enzyme able hydrolyze bagasse xylan, oat spelt birchwood beechwood corncob showed highest xylan. Structural ...

Abstract. Istiqomah L, Cahyanto MN, Zuprizal. 2022. Xylanase production by Trichoderma virens MLT2J2 under solid-state fermentation using corn cob as a substrate. Biodiversitas 23: 6530-6538. is one of non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) degrading enzyme encompass in industrial application like animal feed, food, biofuel, and textile. The objective this study was to produce characterize the crude x...

The microbial profiles and activities of microbes in the digesta from chickens on diets containing Bogong or Canobolas with or without inclusion of microbial enzymes were investigated on the 384 day-old male Ross 308 broiler chickens. There was a reduction in population of C. perfringens (P < 0.01) of the ileum as a result of interaction between cultivar and xylanase. On the other hand, in the ...

BACKGROUND The filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei is widely utilized in industry for cellulase production, but its xylanase activity must be improved to enhance the accessibility of lignocellulose to cellulases. Several transcription factors play important roles in this progress; however, nearly all the reported transcription factors typically target both cellulase and hemi-cellulase genes. ...

Marine snow aggregates are heavily colonized by heterotrophic microorganisms that express high levels of hydrolytic activities, making aggregates hotspots for carbon remineralization in the ocean. To assess how aggregate formation influences the ability of seawater microbial communities to access organic carbon, we compared hydrolysis rates of six polysaccharides in coastal seawater after aggre...

Additional to industrial use of xylanase in kraft pulp production, thermostable xylanase has wider application in fishery, piggery, cattle food and human food. In this research, 1-4-β-Dendoxylanase was isolated from liquid state cultures of Bacillus brevis containing wheat straw as carbon source. Xylanase was purified to apparent homogeneity by gel filtration and ion exchange chromatography. Th...

The Bacillus subtilis xylanase A was subjected to site-directed mutagenesis, aimed at changing the interaction with Triticum aestivum xylanase inhibitor, the only wheat endogenous proteinaceous xylanase inhibitor interacting with this xylanase. The published structure of Bacillus circulans XynA was used to target amino acids surrounding the active site cleft of B.subtilis XynA for mutation. Twe...
