Aspergillus oryzae grown in submerged and solid state fermentations revealed a number of differences in molecular and physiological aspects that are correlated with the different growth conditions. First, the aerial hyphae that occur only in solid state fermentation are mainly responsible for oxygen uptake. Second, solid state fermentation is characterised by gradients in temperature, water act...

Functional properties and antioxidative activity of a protein hydrolysate prepared from Acanthogobius hasta processing by-product protein during solid-state fermentation with Aspergillus oryzae were investigated. Overall, protease activity increased with the degree of hydrolysis (DH) decreased during solid-state fermentation. All the protein hydrolysate had excellent solubility, possessed inter...

Dai X.-J., Liu M.-Q., Jin H.-X., Jing M.-Y. (2011): Optimisation of solid-state fermentation of Aspergillus niger JL-15 for xylanase production and xylooligosaccharides preparation. Czech J. Food Sci., 29: 557–567. The production of xylanase (XylA) by Aspergillus niger JL-15 in solid-state fermentation (SSF) on orange peel was optimised by the response surface methodology (RSM). The results rev...

Modified solid-state fermentation (MSSF) of tannin-rich substrates for production of tannase and gallic acid was carried out using fungal co-cultures. Tannin acyl hydrolase or tannase is an enzyme produced extracellularly in solid state fermentation by various fungi. The solid-state fermentation offers a number of advantages over submerged and liquid conventional fermentation for the enzyme pro...

BACKGROUND: An inexpensive and readily available agroindustrial substrate such as rice bran can be used to produce cheap commercial enzymes by solid-state fermentation. This work investigates the production of food-grade proteases by solid-state fermentation using readily available Thai rice bran. RESULTS: A local strain of Aspergillus oryzae (Ozykat-1) was used to produce proteases. Rice bran ...

the present experiment aimed at increasing orange peel and sugar beet pulp protein content through solid-state fermentation by trichoderma reesei and trichoderma viride. in vitro digestibility and changes in the chemical composition of the fermented products were determined after seven days of fungal cultivation using gas production tests. the cultivation of t. reesei and t. viride on orange pe...

The abundance of organic solid waste throughout the world has become a common issue that needs complete management at every level. Also, the scarcity of fuel and the competition between food and substance as an alternative to a petroleum-based product has become a major problem that needs to be properly handled. An urge to find renewable substances for sustainable development results in a strat...

The effect of glucose and other soluble sugars (xylose, fructose, maltose, cellobiose and lactose) in the production of amylases by Aspergillus tamarii was studied in solid state fermentation (SSF). Wheat bran solid state cultures were resistant to catabolite repression even at high concentration of glucose (10%). Results show the potential of solid state systems to overcome the adverse effects...

This study was initiated to evaluate and optimize the conversion of animal fat from tannery wastes into methyl ester. In the pre-treatment stage, animal fats feedstock was hydrolysed and esterified through solid state fermentation (SSF) using Microbacterium species immobilized onto sand silica matrix. After 72 hours of fermentation, predominant esters in the animal fats were found to be with 83...
