Flaxseed oil cake was subjected to fermentation with Rhizopus oligosporus (DSM 1964 and ATCC 64063), and the phytate (InsP6) content, myo-inositol phosphate profile and in vitro bioavailability of essential minerals were studied. Flaxseed oil cake had a phytate mass fraction of 13.9 mg/g. A 96-hour fermentation of flaxseed oil cake by R. oligosporus DSM 1964 and R. oligosporus ATCC 64063 decrea...

Rhizopus oligosporus was used in the present study for the production of protease enzyme under SSF. Sunflower meal was used as by-product of oil industry incorporated with organic salts was employed for the production of protease enzyme. The main purpose of the present was to study different parameters of protease productivity, its yields and to optimize basal fermentation conditions. The optim...

This study was conducted to determine if topical application of Moringa oleifera extracts and its bioconversion product fermented by Rhizopus oligosporus has therapeutic properties enhancement for treatment of atopic dermatitis. Rhizopus oligosporus (KCCM 11232P) was used to ferment Moringa leaves' extracts in this study. Comparison of organic acids and flavonols in Moringa simple extracts and ...

in this research the 2 sub verities of rhizopus oligosporus was used for production of antioxidative bioactive compounds from whey protein concentrate (wpc) and apple pomace. total phenolic compounds, free radical scavenging ability by dpph and antioxidant protection factort were evaluated in 48 determined treatments. effect of incubation temperature in three levels 23, 27, 31°c, incubation tim...

Two different strains of Rhizopus sp. i.e. R. oligosporus -M30 and R. arrhizus -M26 were employed for the production of acid protease using different agro-residues such as rice husk, rice bran, wheat bran, defatted soybean meal and sunflower meal as a sole carbon source. R. oligosporus -M30 gave maximum enzyme level with soybean meal (15.6 U/gds) while R. arrhizus -M26 with sunflower meal (13.6...

A method of growing Rhizopus oligosporus on cooked rice as the inoculum for the fermentation of soybeans into tempeh was described and evaluated. Isolated R. oligosporus spores on glass beads survived best at low temperature and intermediate humidity. The activity of the rice-grown inoculum to ferment soybeans into tempeh did not decrease appreciably when stored desiccated for one year at 4 C o...

The effect of mono-culture fungal fermentation on mineral composition and amino acid profile of mango (Mangifera indica) kernel cake was investigated. Rhizopus oligosporus, Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus stolonifer and Penicillium chrysogenum were isolated from decomposed mango kernels and then used to ferment mango kernel cake (MKC) for 168hrs. After fermentation the resulted MKC was dried at 60C...

BACKGROUND The use of agricultural and food by-products is an economical solution to industrial biotechnology. The apricot press residues are abounding by-products from juice industry which can be used as substrates in solid state fermentation process (SSF), thus allowing a liberation and increase of content from various biomolecules with high added value. METHODS The evolutions of phenolic l...

The aim of this study was to characterize the bioflocculants secreted from Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis), Aspergillus oryzae (A. oryzae) and Rhizopus oligosporus (R. oligosporus). For precise investigation of bioflocculants, fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was performed, and pH and temperature stability, and decolorization efficiency were evaluated. In addition, the effects of ...
