Xylanase production with xylan rich lignocellulosic wastes by a local soil isolate of Trichoderma viride

Abstract: In the present study, cultural and nutritional conditions for enhanced production of xylanase by a local soil isolate of Trichoderma viride, using various lignocellulosic substrates in submerged culture fermentation have been optimized. Of the lignocellulosics used, maize straw was the best inducer followed by jowar straw for xylanase production. The highest activity achieved was between 14 to 17 days of fermentation. A continuous increase in xylanase production was observed with increasing level of lignocellu… Show more

“…The enzyme was cellulase-free as the crude extract was devoid of cellulase activity. Lignocellulosic materials have been used earlier by various researchers for production of xylanase but with lower activity (3,9,12).…”

“…At present, the dominant cost element in fermentative production of fuel ethanol is starch, though some fermentable starch and sucrose are easily obtainable from agricultural by-products such as sugarcane bagasse, wheat bran, rice bran, corn cob and wheat straw (12,19,36). Expansion of this fermentation process towards utilization of low-value substrates such as agro-industrial wastes offers a great potential for reducing the production cost and increasing the use of ethanol as a fuel additive.…”

“…26,27 The optimum temperature for lignocellulolytic enzyme production was similar to those of other mesophilic fungi such as Aspergillus japonicas C03, Aspergillus glaucas XC8, A. niger MS82, Trichoderma reesei Rut C30, Trichoderma viride strain EU2-77, Penicillum echinulatum and Fusarium oxysporum. The maximum xylanase production has already been reported at a temperature range of [25][26][27][28][29][30] C by Trichoderma viride 28 and P. glabrum. 29 Usually, the maximal reported temperature for these filamentous fungus is 35 C, with an indication of the absence of growth 37 C. 30,31 The activity of lignocellulolytic enzymes also increased on increasing the agitation up to 100 rpm.…”

“…The enzyme production was carried out at different pH (4-6) when incubated at a different temp. (25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40) C) for 24-120 h at 50 ¡150 rpm based on the Central Composite Design (CCD) of RSM (Table 4 and Table 1). An aliquot of fermentation broth was withdrawn from the flask after a regular interval and centrifuged at 4 C at 7000 rpm for 15 min.…”
