Bio-catalysis of mango industrial waste by newly isolated Fusarium sp. (PSTF1) for pectinase production

Abstract: The dried mango fruit processing industrial waste (MIW) used as carbon source for the production of pectinase from fungal strains. Eight fungal strains were isolated from MIW and screened for their ability to produce pectinase by pectin clear zone (PCZ) technique. Fusarium sp. (PSTF1) showed highest PCZ value of 52 mm. The physico-chemical characteristics of the medium were standardized for high production of pectinase. The highest production of pectinase in submerged fermentation observed at temperature—28 °C… Show more

“…Apart of being consumed fresh, about 20% of mango are processed for products such as juices, desserts, mango jam, among others [ 4 ]. During processing, 33% of the fruit is removed in the form of waste, generating, as a result, several million tons per year of mango waste from factories [ 4 , 5 ]. The mango fractions discarded, peel and seed kernel (35–60% total weight of the fruit) are a source of pollution, among other reasons because they are prone to microbial spoilage causing objectionable odors and environmental problems [ 1 , 3 ].…”
