<b>Use of agro-industrial wastes as substrates for α-amylase production by endophytic fungi isolated from <i>Piper hispidum</i> Sw

Abstract: ABSTRACT. Millions of tons of corn, pineapple, sugarcane and wheat are annually produced and their industrial processing generates large amounts of wastes. Current study evaluated the use of corncob (CC), pineapple peel (PP), sugarcane bagasse (SB) and wheat bran (WB) as substrates for α-amylase production by submerged cultures of nine endophytes from Piper hispidum Sw. Initially, fungi were grown on a starch medium and the cup plate assay showed that five strains were amylase-positive: Bipolaris sp. JF767001,… Show more

“…Since cellulases hydrolyze the plant cell wall during colonization by microbial endophytes (DUTTA et al, 2014), there is a great interest in endophytic sources of cellulase for industrial application. In fact, the search of microbial enzymes has already detected several endophytic sources of hydrolytic enzymes, as recently reported by Fouda et al (2015), Orlandelli et al (2015Orlandelli et al ( , 2017a and Ribeiro et al (2018).…”

“…Dried cassava waste pulp containing moisture of 11.74%, starch content 59.40 %, ash content 1.95%, and crude fiber content 16.42%. The tempeh inoculum was identified and tested for amylase enzyme activity using the Fuwa method [16]. Macroscopic observations were made of fungal colonies' color growth on the petri dish.…”
