Studies were carried out for β-glucosidase production using apple pomace (AP) in solid-state fermentation using 24 factorial design and response surface methodology. The influence of four independent variables including initial moisture level and inducers [veratryl alcohol (VA), lactose (LAC) and copper sulfate (CS)] was studied. The experimental design showed that initial moisture level had significant negative effect on the response. Higher β-glucosidase activity of 64.18 IU/gram fermented substrate (gfs) was achieved in solid-state tray fermentation with optimum conditions having initial moisture level 55% (v/w), pH 4.5, 2 mM/kg VA, 2% (w/w) LAC and 1.5 mM/kg CS concentration, respectively,. The non-specific chitinase 70.28 ± 6.34 IU/gfs and chitosanase activities 60.18 ± 6.82 to 64.20 ± 7.12 IU/gfs were observed. The study demonstrated that AP can be potentially used for the β-glucosidase production by Aspergillus niger. Moreover, β-glucosidase can be used for the hydrolysis of chitin/chitosan to depolymerized products and in the formulation of biocontrol agents for enhanced entomotoxicity levels.  相似文献

Aims: To evaluate the potential of apple pomace (AP) supplemented with rice husk for hyper citric acid production through solid‐state fermentation by Aspergillus niger NRRL‐567. Optimization of two key parameters, such as moisture content and inducer (ethanol and methanol) concentration was carried out by response surface methodology. Methods and Results: In this study, the effect of two crucial process parameters for solid‐state citric acid fermentation by A. niger using AP waste supplemented with rice husk were thoroughly investigated in Erlenmeyer flasks through response surface methodology. Moisture and methanol had significant positive effect on citric acid production by A. niger grown on AP (P < 0·05). Higher values of citric acid on AP by A. niger (342·41 g kg?1 and 248·42 g kg?1 dry substrate) were obtained with 75% (v/w) moisture along with two inducers [3% (v/w) methanol and 3% (v/w) ethanol] with fermentation efficiency of 93·90% and 66·42%, respectively depending upon the total carbon utilized after 144 h of incubation period. With the same optimized parameters, conventional tray fermentation was conducted. The citric acid concentration of 187·96 g kg?1 dry substrate with 3% (v/w) ethanol and 303·34 g kg?1 dry substrate with 3% (v/w) methanol were achieved representing fermentation efficiency of 50·80% and 82·89% in tray fermentation depending upon carbon utilization after 120 h of incubation period. Conclusions: Apple pomace proved to be the promising substrate for the hyper production of citric acid through solid‐state tray fermentation, which is an economical technique and does not require any sophisticated instrumentation. Significance and Impact of the Study: The study established that the utilization of agro‐industrial wastes have positive repercussions on the economy and will help to meet the increasing demands of citric acid and moreover will help to alleviate the environmental problems resulting from the disposal of agro‐industrial wastes.  相似文献

Rice straw is valuable resource that has been used as substrate for cost effective production of xylanase under solid-state fermentation by a newly isolated white rot fungi, S. commune ARC-11. Out of eleven carbon sources tested, rice straw was found most effective for the induction of xylanase that produced 4288.3?IU/gds of xylanase by S. commune ARC-11. Maximum xylanase production (6721.9?IU/gds) was observed on 8th day of incubation at temperature (30?°C), initial pH (7.0) and initial moisture content (70.0%). The supplementation of ammonium sulphate (0.08% N, as available nitrogen) enhanced the xylanase production up to 8591.4?IU/gds. The xylanase production by S. commune ARC-11 was further improved by the addition of 0.10%, (w/v) of Tween-20 as surfactant. The maximum xylanase activities were found at pH 5.0 and temperature 55?°C with a longer stability (180?min) at temperature 45, 50 and 55?°C. This xylanase preparation was also evaluated for the pre-bleaching of ethanol-soda pulp from Eulaliopsis binata. An enzyme dosage of 10?IU/g of xylanase resulted maximum decrease in kappa number (14.51%) with a maximum improvement 2.9% in ISO brightness compared to control.  相似文献

Optimization of phytase production by solid substrate fermentation   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
The production of phytase by three feed-grade filamentous fungi (Aspergillus ficuum NRRL 3135, Mucor racemosus NRRL 1994 and Rhizopus oligosporus NRRL 5905) on four commonly used natural feed ingredients (canola meal, cracked corn, soybean meal, wheat bran) was studied in solid substrate fermentation (SSF). A. ficuum NRRL 3135 had the highest yield [15 IU phytase activity/g dry matter (DM)] on wheat bran. By optimizing the supplementation of wheat bran with starch and (NH4)2SO4, phytase production increased to 25 IU/g DM. Optimization was carried out by Plackett-Burman and central composite experimental designs. Using optimized medium, phytase, phosphatase, alpha-amylase and xylanase production by A. ficuum NRRL 3135 was studied in Erlenmeyer flask and tray SSF. By scaling up SSF from flasks to stationary trays, activities of 20 IU phytase activity/g DM were reproducibly obtained. Electronic Publication  相似文献

Tri-substrate mixture of Prosopis juliflora (PJ), red gram husk (RGH) and cotton seed cake (CSC) has been studied for the production of lipase (E.C. 3.1.1.3) using Aspergillus niger MTCC 872 in solid state fermentation. Simplex centroid mixture design (SCMD) was implemented to optimize the tri-substrate mixture composition consisting of PJ, RGH and CSC. Mixture taken in the ratio of 6.66:1.66:1.66 for PJ:RGH:CSC has shown highest lipase activity of 212.20 ± 6.36 U/gds at 30 °C, 7 pH and 70 % initial moisture content (v/w). Sequential optimization of physical parameters was done using the central composite face-centered design (CCFD). The optimum mixture composition has shown the highest lipase activity of 269.87 ± 8.09 U/gds at 35 °C, 7 pH and 70 % initial moisture content (v/w). ANOVA analysis for SCMD and CCFD confirms the model’s significance with R2 values of 0.9989 and 0.968. A 1.27 fold increased lipase activity was obtained after physical parameters optimization. Large scale production using 1 kg substrate was carried out in tray bioreactor with different bed heights and the highest lipase activity of 208.79 ± 6.26 U/gds was obtained. This study signifies the enhancement of lipase production using substrate PJ for lipase production along with the other agricultural residues.  相似文献

Summary Aspergillus niger NRRL 567 was cultured on the solid substrate, fruit pomace, in fixed-bed column bioreactors to produce citric acid. The rates of substrate consumption and citric acid production were strongly influenced by (1) the rate of aeration, (2) the fermentation temperature, (3) the initial moisture content of the substrate, and (4) the size of the inoculum. This culture method yielded approximately 130 g of citric acid per kg of apple pomace fermented under optimum conditions.  相似文献

Oil palm frond parenchyma tissue was used as a solid substrate for the production of laccase via solid‐state fermentation using the white rot fungus Pycnoporus sanguineus. With a rectangular aluminium tray as solid‐state fermentation bioreactor, process parameters such as bed height, moisture and supplemented nitrogen (as urea solution) levels were studied and optimized using a statistical design of experiment. The moisture level exerted a significant effect on the process. The interaction effect observed between bed height and supplemented nitrogen level suggested that uniform distribution of supplemented nitrogen into the substrate bed was important. The proposed regression model sufficiently predicted the process response over the experimental range tested. The optimum parameter combination for laccase production was a 3‐cm bed height, 72% w/w moisture and 0.21% w/v supplemented nitrogen. Laccase productivity remained constant when the tray size was increased from 1.4 to 3.4‐fold.  相似文献

Lignin and manganese peroxidase (LiP, MnP) and laccase production by Phanerocheate chrysosporium was optimized by response surface methodology for brewery waste and apple pomace. The effect of moisture, copper sulphate, and veratryl alcohol (VA) concentrations on enzyme production was studied. Moisture and VA had significant positive effect on MnP and LiP production and the viability of P. chrysosporium (p < 0.05) and copper sulphate produced a negative effect. However, moisture and copper sulphate had a significant positive (p < 0.05) effect on laccase production, but VA had an insignificant positive effect (p < 0.05). Higher values of MnP, LiP and viability of P. chrysosporium on apple pomace (1287.5 U MnP/gds (units/gram dry substrate), 305 U LiP/gds, and 10.38 Log 10 viability) and brewery waste (792 U MnP/gds and 9.83 Log 10 viability) were obtained with 80% moisture, 3 mmol/kg VA, and 0.5 mmol/kg copper. LiP production in brewery waste (7.87 U/gds) was maximal at 70% moisture, 2 mmol/kg VA, and 1 mmol/kg copper. Higher production of laccase in apple pomace (789 U/gds) and brewery waste (841 U/gds) were obtained with 80% moisture, 3 mmol/kg VA, and 1.5 mmol/kg copper. Thus, moisture along with VA and copper sulphate was pertinent for the production of ligninolytic enzymes and increased cell viability.  相似文献

Fungi isolated from partially decayed wood log samples showing characteristic diversity for spore colour, colony morphology and arrangement of spores were assessed for cellulolytic enzyme production. Isolates showing a cellulolytic index of ≥2.0 were assayed for filter paper (FP) cellulase and β-glucosidase (BGL) production. Molecular characterization confirmed the identity of the selected cellulolytic isolate as a strain of Aspergillus niger (A. niger HN-2). Addition of 2 % (w/v) urea enhanced FP and BGL activity by about 20 and 60 %, respectively. Validation studies conducted at parameters (29 °C, pH 5.4, moisture content 72 % and 66 h) optimized through response surface methodology in a solid-state static tray fermentation resulted in FP, BGL, cellobiohydrolase I (CBHI), endoglucanase (EG), xylanase activity and protein content of 25.3 FPU/g ds, 750 IU/g ds, 13.2 IU/g ds, 190 IU/g ds, 2890 IU/g ds and 0.9 mg/ml, respectively. In comparison, A. niger N402 which is a model organism for growth and development studies, produced significantly lower FP, BGL, CBHI, EG, xylanase activity and protein content of 10.0 FPU/g ds, 100 IU/g ds, 2.3 IU/g ds, 50 IU/g ds, 500 IU/g ds and 0.75 mg/ml, respectively under the same process conditions as were used for A. niger HN-2. Process optimization led to nearly 1.8- and 2.2-fold increase in FP and BGL activity, respectively showing promise for cellulase production by A. niger HN-2 at a higher scale of operation. Zymogram analysis revealed two isoforms each for EG and cellobiohydrolase and three isoforms for BGL. Crude cellulase complex produced by A. niger HN-2 exhibited thermostability under acidic conditions showing potential for use in biofuel industry.  相似文献

Production of α-amylase from local isolate, Penicillium chrysogenum, under solid-state fermentation (SSF) was carried out in this study. Different agricultural by-products, such as wheat bran (WB), sunflower oil meal (SOM), and sugar beet oil cake (SBOC), were used as individual substrate for the enzyme production. WB showed the highest enzyme activity (750 U/gds). Combination of WB, SOM, and SBOC (1:3:1 w/w/w) resulted in a higher enzyme yield (845 U/gds) in comparison with the use of the individual substrate. This combination was used as mixed solid substrate for the production of α-amylase from P. chrysogenum by SSF. Fermentation conditions were optimized. Maximum enzyme yield (891 U/gds) was obtained when SSF was carried out using WB + SOM + SBOC (1:3:1 w/w/w), having initial moisture of 75%, inoculum level of 20%, incubation period of 7 days at 30°C. Galactose (1% w/w), urea and peptone (1% w/w), as additives, caused increase in the enzyme activity.  相似文献

Summary Cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic enzymes were produced on extracted sweet sorghum silage by mixed culture solid substrate fermentation with Trichoderma reesei LM-1 (a Peruvian mutant) and Aspergillus niger ATCC 10864. Optimal cellulose and xylanase levels of 4 IU/g dry weight (DW) and 180 IU/g DW, respectively, were achieved in 120 h-fermentation when T. reesei, inoculated at 0 h, was followed by the inoculation of A. niger at 48 h.  相似文献

The high cost of cellulases remains the most significant barrier to the economical production of bio-ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass. The goal of this study was to optimize cellulases and xylanase production by a local indigenous fungus strain (Aspergillus niger DWA8) using agricultural waste (oil palm frond [OPF]) as substrate. The enzyme production profile before optimization indicated that the highest carboxymethyl cellulose (CMCase), filter paper (FPase), and xylanase activities of 1.06 U/g, 2.55 U/g, and 2.93 U/g were obtained on day 5, day 4, and day 5 of fermentation, respectively. Response surface methodology was used to study the effects of several key process parameters in order to optimize cellulase production. Of the five physical and two chemical factors tested, only moisture content of 75% (w/w) and substrate amount of 2.5 g had statistically significant effect on enzymes production. Under optimized conditions of 2.5 g of substrate, 75% (w/w) moisture content, initial medium of pH 4.5, 1 × 106 spores/mL of inoculum, and incubation at ambient temperature (±30°C) without additional carbon and nitrogen, the highest CMCase, FPase, and xylanase activities obtained were 2.38 U/g, 2.47 U/g, and 5.23 U/g, respectively. Thus, the optimization process increased CMCase and xylanase production by 124.5 and 78.5%, respectively. Moreover, A. niger DWA8 produced reasonably good cellulase and xylanase titers using OPF as the substrate when compared with previous researcher finding. The enzymes produced by this process could be further use to hydrolyze biomass to generate reducing sugars, which are the feedstock for bioethanol production.  相似文献

Fungi producing xylanases are plentiful but alkali-thermo-tolerant fungi producing cellulase-poor xylanase are rare. Out of 12 fungal strains isolated from various sources, Coprinellus disseminatus SW-1 NTCC 1165 yielded the highest xylanase activity (362.1 IU/ml) with minimal cellulase contamination (0.64 IU/ml). The solid state fermentation was more effective yielding 88.59% higher xylanase activity than that of submerged fermentation. An incubation period of 7 days at 37°C and pH 6.4 accelerated the xylanase production up to the maximum level. Among various inexpensive agro-residues used as carbon source, wheat bran induced the maximum xylanase titres (469.45 IU/ml) while soya bean meal was the best nitrogen source (478.5 IU/ml). A solid substrate to moisture content ratio of 1:3 was suitable for xylanase production while xylanase titre was repressed with the addition of glucose and lactose. The xylanase and laccase activities under optimized conditions were 499.60 and 25.5 IU/ml, respectively along with negligible cellulase contamination (0.86 IU/ml). Biochemical characterization revealed that optimal xylanase activity was observed at pH 6.4 and temperature 55°C and xylanase is active up to pH 9 (40.33 IU/ml) and temperature 85°C (48.81 IU/ml). SDS–PAGE and zymogram analysis indicated that molecular weight of alkali-thermo-tolerant xylanase produced by C. disseminatus SW-1 NTCC 1165 was 43 kDa.  相似文献

This investigation deals with the use of agro-industrial waste, namely groundnut oil cake (GOC), for phytase production by the fungi Aspergillus niger NCIM 563. Plackett–Burman design (PBD) was used to evaluate the effect of 11 process variables and studies here showed that phytase production was significantly influenced by glucose, dextrin, distilled water, and MgSO4 · 7H2O. The use of response surface methodology (RSM) by Box–Behnken design (BBD) of experiments further enhanced the production by a remarkable 36.67-fold from the original finding of 15 IU/gds (grams of dry substrate) to 550 IU/gds. This is the highest solid-state fermentation (SSF) phytase production reported when compared to other microorganisms and in fact betters the best known by a factor of 2. Experiments carried out using dried fermented koji for phosphorus and mineral release and also thermal stability have shown the phytase to be as efficient as the liquid enzyme extract. Also, the enzyme, while exhibiting optimal activity under acidic conditions, was found to have significant activity in a broad range of pH values (1.5–6.5). The studies suggest the suitability of the koji supplemented with phytase produced in an SSF process by the “generally regarded as safe” (GRAS) microorganism A. niger as a cost-effective value-added livestock feed when compared to that obtained by submerged fermentation (SmF).  相似文献

Summary A solid state fermentation (SSF) process for the production of lignin peroxidase was optimized to enhance enzyme production by Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Optimization of the corncob SSF medium caused a significant reduction in fermentation time to give maximum lignin peroxidase yield. Supplementation of the SSF medium by low concentrations of peptone, yeast extract and Tween-80 enhanced lignin peroxidase production. Maximum yield of lignin peroxidase was 13.7 U/gds (units per gram dry substrate) noted after 5 days of SSF with 70% moisture and 20% (v/w) inoculum.  相似文献

Aspergillus niger produced high levels of naringinase using easily available, inexpensive industrial waste residues such as rice bran, wheat bran, sugar cane bagasse, citrus peel, and press mud in solid‐state fermentation (SSF). Among these, rice bran was found to be the best substrate. Naringinase production was highest after 96 h of incubation at 27°C and at a substrate‐to‐moisture ratio of 1:1 w/v. Supplementation of the medium with 10% naringin caused maximum induction. An inoculum age of 72 h and an inoculum level of 15% resulted in maximum production of naringinase. Enzyme production was stimulated by the addition of nutrients such as naringin and peptone. Thus, A. niger produced a very high level of naringinase within a short time in solid‐state fermentation using inexpensive agro‐residues, a level that is much higher than reported for any other microbes.  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

The initial moisture content, cultivation time, inoculum size and concentration of basal medium were optimized in solid state fermentation (SSF) for the production of xylanase by an Aspergillus niger mutant using statistical experimental designs. The cultivation time and concentration of basal medium were the most important factors affecting xylanase activity. An inoculum size of 5 x 10(5) spores/g, initial moisture content of 65%, cultivation time of 5 days and 10 times concentration of basal medium containing 50 times concentration of corn steep liquor were optimum for xylanase production in SSF. Under the optimized conditions, the activity and productivity of xylanase obtained after 5 days of fermentation were 5,071 IU/g of rice straw and 14,790 IU l(-1) h(-1), respectively. The xylanase activity predicted by a polynomial model was 5,484 IU/g of rice straw.  相似文献

Summary A solid state fermentation process is described for the production of citric acid from apple pomace byAspergillus niger NRRL 567. The yields of citric acid varied with the pomace varieties, and were dependent on (1) the amount of methanol present in the pomace, and (2) the fermentation time and temperature. The process yielded as much as 90 g citric acid/kg apple pomace fermented in the presence of 3–4% methanol at 30°C in five days.

With the objective of the production of xylanase, local raw material (rice husk) and the indigenous isolate, Aspergillus niger ITCC 7678, were studied. Optimization of the cultivation system for enhancing xylanase production was studied via submerged fermentation. Statistical procedures were employed to study the effect of process variables, such as alkali-pretreated rice husk (as carbon source), NaNO3 (as nitrogen source), KH2PO4, KCl, Tween 80 (as surfactant), MgSO4, FeSO4·7H2O, pH, particle size, agitation, and temperature, on xylanase production by A. niger. The effect and significance of the variables was studied using Plackett–Burman (PBD) and central composite statistical design (CCD). It was found that alkali pretreated rice husk (weight/volume), pH, temperature, and NaNO3 significantly influence xylanase production. So, these four factors were further optimized by CCD, and it was found that maximum xylanase activity of 10.9 IU/ml was observed at (6.5 % w/v) rice husk, pH (5.5), temperature (32.5 °C), and NaNO3 (0.35 % w/v) concentration. Under optimum conditions, xylanase production was also studied at the bioreactor level and showed 12.8 % enhanced xylanase activity.  相似文献
