TL;DR: Solid-state fermentation obtained from different and low-cost carbon sources was evaluated to endocellulases and endoxylanases production by Aspergillus japonicus C03 and xylanase was greatly stable in goat rumen fluid for 4 h during in vivo and in vitro experiments.

TL;DR: The alkaline protease produced through solid-state fermentation (SSF), was immobilized on beads of calcium alginate, allowing comparative analyses of free and immobilized proteases to be carried out and it was observed that both optimum temperature and thermal stability of the immobilized enzyme were higher than for the free enzyme.

TL;DR: The adsorption of lipases in low ionic strength and highly hydrophobic supports is shown to be a simple and rapid tool for the immobilization of H. pseudokoningii lipase, and derivatives with excellent thermal stabilities strongly increase the chances of this biocatalyst for industrial application.

TL;DR: This study investigates the production of glucoamylase from Aspergillus phoenicis in Machado Benassi medium using 1% maltose as carbon source and finds that the enzyme was totally stable at 30–65 °C for 1 h, and the pH range was 3.0–6.0.

TL;DR: A new lipase from seeds of Pachira aquatica was purified to homogeneity by SDS-PAGE obtaining an enzyme with a molecular weight of approximately 55 kDa that showed preference for esters of long-chain fatty acids, but demonstrated significant activity against a wide range of substrates.
