A mylases are very important and have a wide range of applications. Semi-solid state fermentation is increasingly used for the production of enzymes, since it requires simple technology and costs are low. In this regard, it is worth emphasizing the importance of rice as a substrate, due to its readily availability and low cost. This study evaluated the ability of the fungus Cylindrocladium sp. to produce α-amylase and amy loglucosidase. The studies were carried out with the fungus strain Cylindrocladium sp. with a rice-based substrate. The material was kept in an oven at 28 °C for 96 hours and measured every 24 hours. Fo r the quantification of amy loglucosidase enzymes, the DNS reagent method was adopted. The α-amylase activity was determined by measuring the concentration of starch using iodine dosage. Analysis of the data obtained in this study showed that the fungus Cylindrocladium sp. produces α-amylase and amyloglucosidase enzymes; peak production for α-amy lase was at 72 hours with 245.02 U/g, and at 92 hours for amy loglucosidase with 73.58 U/g. Through the interpretation of these results it was possible to conclude that the fungus Cylindrocladium sp. produces relevant values of the enzy mes α-amylase and amy loglucosidase.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
