Biochemical and molecular characterization of cellulase producing bacterial isolates from cattle dung samples

Abstract

Depletion of fossil fuels and worldwide increases of energy demand and environmental concern has lead in search for an alternative renewable energy resource like lignocellulosic biomass [1,2]. Lignocelluloses are renewable, cost efficient, eco-friendly potential feedstock for the production of bio fuels. However, the bioconversion of this lignocellulosic biomass
