Abstract: | Production of cellulolytic enzymes on bagasse under solid state fermentation by coculture ofAspergillus ellipticus andAspergillus fumigatus was studied. Cocultivation ofA. ellipticus andA. fumigatus showed improved hydrolytic and Β-glucosidase activities as compared to the occasions when they were used separately. Various
pretreatment methods were used to make cellulose accessible to enzymatic attack. Best results were obtained through pretreatment
with 2% (w/v) calcium hydroxide. Maximum enzyme production was obtained after 8 d of fermentation process. |
