Effect of physicochemical parameters on the polygalacturonase of an Aspergillus sojae mutant using wheat bran, an agro‐industrial waste, via solid‐state fermentation

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Polygalacturonases (PGs) are valuable enzymes of the food industry; therefore it is of great importance to discover new and GRAS PG-producing microbial strains. In this study, PG enzyme produced from a high PG activity producer mutant Aspergillus sojae using wheat bran at the flask scale under pre-optimized conditions of solid-state fermentation (SSF) was biochemically characterized.

“…A recent research by Demir and Tari [33] has characterized the stability of this enzyme (produced by SSF) under different conditions. The study revealed that PG from a mutant A. sojae ATCC 20235 strain produced by SSF was an acidic pectinase displaying its optimum activity on polygalacturonic acid in the pH range of 4.0-5.0 and at a temperature of 40°C.…”

“…The substrate concentration for experiments of PGA was 0·25 ppm. The specific activity (U = 1 unit of PGA) was defined as the amount of the enzyme that released 1 μmol of PGA per unit time per unit volume (Demir and Tari ).…”

“…Enzyme activities were calculated using the absorbance values measured at 500 nm wavelength and the galacturonic acid standard curve. One unit of enzyme activity is defined as the amount of enzyme that liberates 1 μmol of galacturonic acid in 1 min under standard assay conditions and activity values are given in U/mL [16][17][18][33][34][35][36][37][38].…”
