Mature larvae of Antheraea assamensis were collected from different locations of Assam to isolate the cellulolytic gut microflora. Altogether sixty cellulase degrading bacteria were isolated on agar plates containing microcrystalline cellulose as the sole carbon source. Among them, ten isolates showed hydrolyzing zone on agar plates containing carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC) after staining with Congo-red. Isolate MGB05 exhibited the highest CMCase activity (0.262?U/mL) at 72?h of incubation under submerged condition. FPase and β-glucosidase activity were 0.012?U/mL and 3.71?U/mL respectively. It showed maximum FPase (0.022?U/mL) activity on the 3rd day of incubation in the media containing wheat bran as a carbon source. β-glucosidase production was also found to be highest with wheat bran (20.03?U/mL) at 48?h of incubation. The optimum pH and temperature of FPase activity of MGB05 were found at 6.0 and 50?°C respectively while for β-glucosidase activity, it was maximum at pH?6.0 under 50?°C. In addition, metal ion Mg++ and Ca++ enhanced FPase activity up to 110.92% (0.026?U/mL) and 105.31% (0.025?U/mL) respectively. In-vitro antimicrobial bioassay of the most potent cellulolytic bacteria (MGB05) also showed high antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli (2.9?cm) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3.0?cm). The isolate MGB05 has been identified based on 16S rDNA homology as Bacillus pumilus MGB05 with accession KP298708.2. Results encompass the prospective beneficial role of gut-microflora on digestion and disease resistance, which might be a potential probiotic component to enhance silk productivity.  相似文献

A lignocellulosic decomposing fungus Z5 was isolated and identified as Aspergillus fumigatus, its capacity to produce cellulase was assessed under solid-state fermentation (SSF) using lignocellulosic materials as substrates. Cultivation conditions of A. fumigatus Z5 for cellulase production were optimized, results showed that for carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase) and filter paper enzyme (FPase), the best condition was 50 °C, 80% initial moisture, initial pH 4.0 and 7% initial inoculum, the average activity of CMCase activity, FPase activity reached 526.3 and 144.6 U g−1 dry weight (dw) respectively, much higher than most of previous reports of this genus. Optimal temperature and pH for the CMCase activity of the crude enzyme were found to be 50 °C and 5.0, respectively. Zymogram analysis showed that eight kinds of CMCase were secreted by A. fumigatus Z5 when cellulose-containing materials were supplied in the culture. The crude enzyme secreted by the strain was further applied to hydrolyze pretreated corn stover and the enzymatic hydrolysate was used as substrate for ethanol production by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The yield of bio-ethanol was 0.112 g g−1 dry substrate (gDS), suggesting that it is a promising fungus in the bio-ethanol production process.  相似文献

Cellulolytic activities of three bacterial consortia derived from a forest soil sample from Chaco region, Argentina, were characterized. The phylogenetic analysis of consortia revealed two main highly supported groups including Achromobacter and Pseudomonas genera. All three consortia presented cellulolytic activity. The carboxymethylcellulase (CMCase) and total cellulase activities were studied both quantitatively and qualitatively and optimal enzymatic conditions were characterized and compared among the three consortia. Thermal and pH stability were analyzed. Based on its cellulolytic activity, one consortium was selected for further characterization by zymography. We detected a specific protein of 55 kDa with CMCase activity. In this study, we have shown that these consortia encode for cellulolytic enzymes. These enzymes could be useful for lignocellulosic biomass degradation into simple components and for different industrial applications.  相似文献

Cellulomonas strains consumed commercial cellulose, cellulosic residues, xylan, cellobiose and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as carbon sources in liquid culture, the growth being the most on cellobiose medium. All three components of the cellulase complex ofCellulomonas were produced when the organisms utilized all substrates as sole carbon and energy sources. The filter-paper cellulase (FPase) and endo-glucanase (CMCase) activities were higher in media containing α-cellulose and cellulosic residues than in media containing CMC, cellobiose, and xylan. Cell-free supernatants of all organisms exhibited greater CMC hydrolyzing activity than filter paper and β-glucoside hydrolyzing activities. All strains synthesized β-glucosidase maximally on cellobiose followed by commercial cellulose and cellulosic residues.C. biazotea produced the highest FPase and CMCase activity during growth on α-cellulose. It was followed byC. flavigena, C. cellasea, andC. fimi. Endo-glucanase and FPase from all organisms were secreted into the medium; 10–13 % became adsorbed on the surface of the insoluble substrates and could be successfully eluted using Tween 80. β-Glucosidase was located in cell extracts from all organisms.C. biazotea produced FPase and β-glucosidase activities several-fold greater than those produced by many other strains ofCellulomonas and some other cellulolytic bacteria and fungi. These studies were supported byPakistan Atomic Energy Commission. Some chemicals were purchased from funds allocated byUnited States Agency for International Development, Washington (DC, USA), under PSTC proposal 6.163.  相似文献

Endophytes are microorganisms that asymptomatically invade plant tissues. They can stimulate plant growth and/or provide defense against pathogen attacks through the production of secondary metabolites. Most endophyte species are still unknown, and because they may have several applications, the study of their metabolic capabilities is essential. We characterized 100 endophytes isolated from Espeletia spp., a genus unique to the paramo ecosystem, an extreme environment in the Andean mountain range. We evaluated the cellulolytic potential of these endophytes on the saccharification of the oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB). The total cellulolytic activity was measured for each endophyte on filter paper (FPA). In addition, the specific carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase), exoglucanase, and β-glucosidase activities were determined. We found four fungi positive for cellulases. Of these fungi, Penicillium glabrum had the highest cellulolytic activity after partial purification, with maximal CMCase, exoglucanase and β-glucosidase enzyme activities of 44.5, 48.3, and 0.45 U/ml, respectively. Our data showed that the bioprospection of fungi and the characterization of their enzymes may facilitate the process of biofuel production.  相似文献

Paper from an ancient library of the cultural city of Fez (Morocco) is exposed to rapid deterioration by variety of microorganisms, especially cellulolytic fungi. For this, ten isolates fungi previously isolated from historical biodeteriorated paper were screened for their ability to produce endoglucanase (CMCase), amylase, polygalacturonase and ligninase enzymes. The CMCase activity of cellulolytic strains was essayed in liquid media at 25°C for 10 days. Influence of temperature and pH were assessed for the production of CMCase by all the fungus isolated from decaying paper. The research findings from the present study demonstrate that all the tested isolates had cellulase, amylase, pectinase and ligninase activities. It was found that Mucor racemosus PF15, Aspergillus niger, and Aspergillus oryzae exhibited the maximum endoglucanase activity in liquid medium (0.256, 0.236, and 0.216 UI/mL in descending order) for six days. Temperature profiling revealed optimum endoglucanase activity at 25 and 30°C. Maximum activity was observed at pH 5 and pH 6.  相似文献

Trichoderma sp. is a potential cellulase producing mesophilic fungi which grow under mild acidic condition. In this study, growth and nutritional conditions were manipulated for the maximum and cost-effective production of cellulase using lab strain Trichoderma sp. RCK65 and checked for its efficiency in hydrolysis of Prosopis juliflora (a woody substrate). Preliminary studies suggested that when 48 h old secondary fungal culture (20 % v/w) was inoculated in wheat bran moistened with mineral salt solution (pH 4.5 and 1:3 solid to moisture ratio), incubated at 30 °C and after 72 h, it produced maximum cellulase (CMCase 145 U/gds, FPase 38 U/gds and β-glucosidase 105 U/gds). However, using statistical approach a S:L ratio (1:1) was surprisingly found to be optimum that improved cellulase that is CMCase activity by 6.21 %, FPase activity by 23.68 % and β-glucosidase activity by 37.28 %. The estimated cost of crude enzyme (Rs. 5.311/1000 FPase units) seems to be economically feasible which may be due to high enzyme titre, less cultivation time and low media cost. Moreover, when the crude enzyme was used to saccharify pretreated Prosopis juliflora (a woody substrate), it resulted up to 83 % (w/w) saccharification.  相似文献

This study evaluated the production of cellulolytic enzymes from different agricultural residues. The crude enzyme extract produced was characterized and applied for saccharification of some agricultural residues. Maximum cellulolytic activities were obtained using soybean hulls. All enzymatic activities were highly stable at 40 °C at a pH range of 4.5–5.5. For stability at low temperatures, the enzyme extract was stored at freezing temperature and cooling for about 290 days without major loss of activity. The Km values found for total cellulase (FPase), endoglucanase (CMCase), and xylanase were 19.73 mg ml−1, 0.65 mg ml−1, and 22.64 mg ml−1, respectively, and Vmax values were 0.82 mol min−1 mg−1, 0.62 mol min−1 mg−1, and 104.17 mol min−1 mg−1 to cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, and xylan, respectively. In the saccharification tests, the total amount of total reducing sugars (TRS) released from 1 g of soybean hulls catalyzed by the enzymes present in the crude enzyme extract was 0.16 g g−1 dry substrate.

Extracellular cellulolytic and xylanolytic enzymes ofStreptomyces sp. EC22 were produced during submerged fermentation. The cell-free culture supernatant of the streptomycete grown on microcrystalline cellulose contained enzymes able to depolymerize both crystalline and soluble celluloses and xylans. Higher cellulase and xylanase activities were found in the cell-free culture supernatant of the strain when grown on microcrystalline cellulose than when grown on xylan. Total cellulase and endoglucanase [carboxymethyl-cellulase (CMCase)] activities reached maxima after 72 h and xylanase activity was maximal after 60h. Temperature and pH optima were 55°C and 5.0 for CMCase activity and 60°C and 5.5 for total crystalline cellulase and xylanase activities. At 80°C, approximate half-lives of the enzymes were 37, 81 and 51 min for CMCase, crystalline cellulose depolymerization and xylanase, respectively.  相似文献

The abundance of oil palm decanter cake (OPDC) is a problem in oil palm mills. However, this lignocellulosic biomass can be utilized for cellulase and polyoses production. The effectiveness of chemical and physical pretreatment in reducing the lignin content was studied by saccharification using a Celluclast 1.5 L and scanning electron microscope. Physicochemical pretreatment of OPDC with 1% (w/v) NaOH and autoclaving at 121°C for 20 min increased potential polyoses produced to 52.5% and removed 28.7% of the lignin content. The optimized conditions for cellulase production by a locally isolated fungus were a time of 120 h, a substrate of untreated OPDC, a spore concentration of 1 × 107 spore/mL, a temperature of 30°C, and a pH between 7.0 and 7.5. Trichoderma asperellum UPM1 produced carboxymethylcellulase (CMCase), ??-glucosidase and filter paper activity (FPase) in the following concentrations: 17.35, 0.53, and 0.28 U/mL, respectively. Aspergillus fumigatus UPM2 produced the CMCase, ??-glucosidase and FPase in the following amounts: 10.93, 0.76, and 0.24 U/mL. The cellulases from T. asperellum UPM1 produced 2.33 g/L of polyoses and the cellulases from A. fumigatus UPM2 produced 4.37 g/L of polyoses.  相似文献

The present study is aimed at simultaneous cellulase synthesis and coir pith degradation by Aspergillus nidulans using coir pith as chief substrate. The lignocellulosic biomass, coir pith is known to be an excellent carbon source for microbial cellulase production under solid state fermentation. The alkali pretreatment with sodium hydroxide was seen to enhance enzymatic hydrolysis. The effect of coir pith weight, moisture content, initial pH and growth temperature on cellulase activity and yield were investigated by response surface methodology (RSM) employing a four-factor-five-level central composite design (CCD). The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of coir pith showed structural changes through pretreatment, in favor of enzymatic hydrolysis. Maximum carboxy methyl cellulase activity (CMCase) of 28.64 U/g and cellulase yield of 66.32% were achieved with 8 g coir pith at 70% moisture content and 40 °C temperature with pH 5 as evident from run numbers 25 and 30. Filter paper (FPase) and cellobiase (CBase) activities of 10.23 U/g and 4.31 U/g respectively were observed on the 11th day after the inoculation.  相似文献

Sugarcane bagasse (SCB), a lignocellulosic byproduct of juice extraction from sugarcane, is rich in cellulose (40-42%). This could be used as a substrate for the production of cellulase complex. Fermentation conditions were optimized for production of cellulase complex (CMCase, Cellulobiase and FPase) by wild type Trichoderma sp. using sugarcane bagasse as sole carbon source. Alkaline treatment (2% NaOH) of bagasse (AlSCB) was found suitable for the production of reducing sugar over the acidic pretreatment method. After 5 days of incubation period, 5% substrate concentration at pH 5.0 and 400C resulted in maximum production of CMCase (0.622 U), while maximum (3.388 U) production of cellulobiase was obtained at 300C. The CMCase was precipitated and purified to the extent of 59.06 fold by affinity chromatography with 49.09% recovery. On 12% SDS-PAGE, a single band corresponding to 33 kDa was observed. The Km and Vmax for CMCase from Trichoderma was found 507.04 mg/ml and 65.32 mM/min, respectively. The enzyme exhibited maximum activity at 300C at pH-5.0 (0.363 U) and was stable over range of 20-60°C and pH 5.0-7.5.  相似文献

Avicelase, carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase), and β-glucosidase activities have been compared between Clostridium thermocellum and three extremely thermophilic, cellulolytic anaerobes, isolates TP8, TP11, and KT8. The three isolates were all small, gram-negative staining, oval-ended rods which occurred singly and, at exponential phase, in long chains. They were nonflagellated and no spores were visible. The KT8 and TP11 isolates caused clumping of the cellulose during growth. In all four organisms the CMCase activity paralleled cell growth; however, in C. thermocellum and TP8 the avicelase activity did not increase until early stationary phase. Total CMCase activity in C. thermocellum was significantly higher than in the three isolates; however, avicelase activities were much more comparable among the four organisms. C. thermocellum produced higher levels of ethanol, and all four organisms produced similar concentrations of acetate. The amounts of free and bound CMCase and avicelase activities were investigated. In C. thermocellum and TP8 most of the CMCase and avicelase activities were bound to the cellulose in the medium. In contrast, most of the CMCase activity in TP11 and KT8 was free in the culture supernatant; a significant percentage of avicelase activity was also free. The TP8 isolate was also grown on a defined medium with urea as sole nitrogen source and cellulose serving as the carbon source. Under these conditions the pattern of enzyme production was the same as that in the enriched medium, although the level of that production was considerably reduced.  相似文献

The activities of cellulolytic and xylanolytic enzymes produced by an anaerobic fungus (R1) which resembled Neocallimastix sp. were investigated. Carboxymethylcellulase (CMCase), cellobiase, and filter paper (FPase) activities had pH optima of 6.0, 5.5, and 6.0, respectively. CMCase and cellobiase activities both had a temperature optimum of 50 degrees C, whereas FPase had an optimum of 45 degrees C. The pH and temperature optima for xylanase activity were pH 6.0 and 50 degrees C, respectively. Growth of the fungus on wheat straw, wheat straw holocellulose, or cellulose resulted in substantial colonization, with at least 43 to 58% losses in substrate dry matter and accumulation of comparable amounts of formate. This end product was correlated to apparent loss of substrate dry weight and could be used as an indicator of fungal growth. Milling of wheat straw did not enhance the rate or extent of substrate degradation. Growth of the R1 isolate on the above substrates or xylan also resulted in accumulation of high levels of xylanase activity and lower cellulase activities. Of the cellulases, CMCase was the most active and was associated with either low or trace amounts of cellobiase and FPase activities. During growth on xylan, reducing sugars, including arabinose and xylose, rapidly accumulated in the medium. Xylose and other reducing sugars, but not arabinose, were subsequently used for growth. Reducing sugars also accumulated, but not as rapidly, when the fungus was grown on wheat straw, wheat straw holocellulose, or cellulose. Xylanase activities detected during growth of R1 on media containing glucose, xylose, or cellobiose suggested that enzyme production was constitutive.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Schizophyllum commune is a basidiomycete equipped with an efficient cellulolytic enzyme system capable of growth on decaying woods. In this study, production of lignocellulose-degrading enzymes from S. commune mutant G-135 (SC-Cel) on various cellulosic substrates was examined. The highest cellulase activities including CMCase, FPase, and β-glucosidase were obtained on Avicel-PH101 while a wider range of enzymes attacking non-cellulosic polysaccharides and lignin were found when grown on alkaline-pretreated biomass. Proteomic analysis of SC-Cel also revealed a complex enzyme system comprising seven glycosyl hydrolase families with an accessory carbohydrate esterase, polysaccharide lyase, and auxiliary redox enzymes. SC-Cel obtained on Avicel-PH101 effectively hydrolyzed all agricultural residues with the maximum glucan conversion of 98.0% using corn cobs with an enzyme dosage of 5 FPU/g-biomass. The work showed potential of SC-Cel on hydrolysis of various herbaceous biomass with enhanced efficiency by addition external β-xylosidase.  相似文献

Enzyme extracts of cellulase [filter paper cellulase (FPase) and carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase)], chitinase, and chitosanase produced by Aspergillus niger NRRL-567 were evaluated. The interactive effects of initial moisture and different inducers for FP cellulase and CMCase production were optimized using response surface methodology. Higher enzyme activities [FPase 79.24+/- 4.22 IU/gram fermented substrate (gfs) and CMCase 124.04+/-7.78 IU/gfs] were achieved after 48 h fermentation in solid-state medium containing apple pomace supplemented with rice husk [1% (w/w)] under optimized conditions [pH 4.5, moisture 55% (v/w), and inducers veratryl alcohol (2 mM/kg), copper sulfate (1.5 mM/kg), and lactose 2% (w/w)] (p<0.05). Koji fermentation in trays was carried out and higher enzyme activities (FPase 96.67+/-4.18 IU/gfs and CMCase 146.50+/-11.92 IU/gfs) were achieved. The nonspecific chitinase and chitosanase activities of cellulase enzyme extract were analyzed using chitin and chitosan substrates with different physicochemical characteristics, such as degree of deacetylation, molecular weight, and viscosity. Higher chitinase and chitosanase activities of 70.28+/-3.34 IU/gfs and 60.18+/-3.82 to 64.20+/-4.12 IU/gfs, respectively, were achieved. Moreover, the enzyme was stable and retained 92-94% activity even after one month. Cellulase enzyme extract obtained from A. niger with chitinolytic and chitosanolytic activities could be potentially used for making low-molecular-weight chitin and chitosan oligomers, having promising applications in biomedicine, pharmaceuticals, food, and agricultural industries, and in biocontrol formulations.  相似文献

An active strain of Aspergillus spp. has been selected for the production of cellulolytic enzymes and proteins when grown on peracetic acid-treated wheat straw. This strain produced a considerable amount of cellulase [see 1,4-(1,3;1,4)-β-d-glucan 4-glucanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.4] in the extracellular supernatant and exhibited good overall cellulolytic activity, as measured using filter paper and Avicel as substrates. Also, under the same conditions the strain showed high activities of β-d-glucosidase (β-d-glucoside glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.21) and β-d-xylosidase (1,4-β-d-xylan xylohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.37). The maximum enzyme yields (carboxymethylcellulose activity 26.4 units ml?1, filter paper activity 2.26 units ml?1 and Avicel activity 16.82 units ml?1; β-d-glucosidase 9.09 units ml?1 and β-d-xylosidase 1.92 units ml?1) were obtained after 96 h incubation at 45°C.  相似文献

Cellulase production using residues as substrate has been well described, as it is an interesting method of reducing the costs of processes, one of the main bottlenecks for the production of enzymes. This research describes for the first time the use of raw domestic wastewater, which is largely and continuously generated, as a culture base medium for cellulase production. The strain Trichoderma harzianum HBA03 was selected according to the highest activity produced for FPase (5.4 U/mL) and CMCase (8.2 U/mL). Peptone was selected as a nitrogen source and microcrystalline cellulose as the inducer for cellulase production, resulting in FPase activities of 5.6 and 5.0 U/mL and CMCase activities of 12.0 and 14.4 U/mL. The use of domestic wastewater as the culture medium led to an increase of 1.41 and 1.14 fold of FPase and CMCase production, respectively, compared to the synthetic medium. Production was also carried out in a bubble column reactor in which the maximum productivities achieved 10.2 U/L.h (FPase) and 64.6 U/L.h (CMCase). The presented results demonstrate the feasibility of the use of domestic wastewater for cellulases production, thereby contributing to the development of a sustainable process for reusing wastewater with a significant reduction in environmental impact.  相似文献
