Abstract: | The effect of various kinds of starch, as the sole source of organic carbon, on the biosynthesis of glucose oxidase by A. niger GIV-10 was examined. A. niger grown on 6% wheat starch medium provided extracellular and intracellular glucose oxidase with the highest enzymatic activities. A new method of intracellular glucose oxidase extraction (without disruption of mycelium), developed and discussed in this paper, increased 2 to 3.8-times glucose oxidase yield, as compared to that described earlier. |
