Cellulose is the most abundant renewable natural biological resource, and the production of biobased products and bioenergy from less costly renewable lignocellulosic materials is important for the sustainable development of human beings. A reduction in cellulase production cost, an improvement in cellulase performance, and an increase in sugar yields are all vital to reduce the processing cost...

abstract: aqueous enzymatic extraction of oil from pistacia khinjuk was performed using cellulase. the central composite design was used to optimize the parameters that are significant to the process. the influence of three regressors on the percentage of oil recovery from seed was evaluated using second-order polynomial multiple regression model. analysis of variance showed a high coefficient ...

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...

Etiolated pea (Pisum sativum) epicotyls synthesize a buffer-soluble cellulase (cellulase A) and a salt-soluble cellulase (cellulase B) (EC 3.2.1.4) after treatment with high (0.5%) auxin levels. Only cellulase A increased in activity after treatment with low (0.005%) auxin. Cellulase A was released into the supernatant after homogenization of tissue in dilute buffer (buffer-soluble), had a pH o...

Cellulase is an enzymatic complex which synergically promotes the degradation of cellulose to glucose. The adsorption behavior of cellulase from Trichoderma reesei onto Si wafers or amino-terminated surfaces was investigated by means of ellipsometry and atomic force microscopy (AFM) as a function of temperature. Upon increasing temperature from (24 +/- 1) to (60 +/- 1) degrees C, adsorption of ...

A cellulase producing bacterium (E3 strain) was isolated from fecal matter of elephant and identified as Bacillus sp. using 16S rDNA sequenced based molecular phylogenetic approach. While studying the effect of substrates like Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), avicel, starch, maltose, sucrose, glucose, fructose, galactose and lactose on cellulase production, it was found that CMC was best carbon s...

Regulation of cell-specific cellulase synthesis (expressed in milligrams of cellulase per gram [dry weight] of cells) by Clostridium thermocellum was investigated using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay protocol based on antibody raised against a peptide sequence from the scaffoldin protein of the cellulosome (Zhang and Lynd, Anal. Chem. 75:219-227, 2003). The cellulase synthesis in Avicel-g...

Abstract In the process of bioethanol production, more stable and active cellulase in high temperature condition is required. this study, syringic acid was applied hydrolysis system. At 70°C, Tv EG3 activity increased 201.36%, Ct BglA decreased 72.79% by acid. With assisting, thermostability improved, reduced. Syringic scarcely affected CBH. system with cellulases containing EG3, CBH, BglA, red...

Effective hydrolysis of pretreated lignocellulose mediated by cellulase requires an in-depth understanding of cellulase adsorption and desorption. Here we developed a simple method for determining the adsorbed cellulase on cellulosic materials or pretreated lignocellulose, which involves (i) hydrolysis of adsorbed cellulase in the presence of 10 M of NaOH at 121 degrees C for 20 min, and (ii) t...
