Aspergillus Enzymes Involved in Degradation of Plant Cell Wall Polysaccharides
Ronald P. de Vries,Jaap Visser +1 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge of the cell wall polysaccharide-degrading enzymes from aspergilli and the genes by which they are encoded and describes the enzymatic pathways followed by tailored modifications by using specific enzymes purified from these fungi.

Thiago Machado Pasin,Vivian Machado Benassi,Paulo Ricardo Heinen,André Damasio,Mariana Cereia,João Atílio Jorge,Maria de Lourdes Teixeira de Moraes Polizeli +6 more
TL;DR: The analysis of the end-products by thin layer chromatography showed only glucose formation, which characterizes the purified enzyme as a glucoamylase, in addition to the biochemical characteristics are important results for future biotechnological applications of this glu coamylases in the recycling and deinking process by the paper industries.

Protein Measurement with the Folin Phenol Reagent
TL;DR: Procedures are described for measuring protein in solution or after precipitation with acids or other agents, and for the determination of as little as 0.2 gamma of protein.

A photometric adaptation of the somogyi method for the determination of glucose
TL;DR: In this paper, the reliability of the various Somogyi-Shaffer-Hartmann (SHH) copper reagents for glucose determination in biological material has been established, which can be accomplished by omission of the iodide and iodate in their preparation, since these interfere with the molybdate color reagents.

Cellulases: Biosynthesis and applications
Dewey D. Y. Ryu,Mary Mandels +1 more
TL;DR: Strains of Trichoderma, particularly T. reesei and its mutants, are good sources of extracellular cellulase suitable for practical saccharification and carbon compounds derived from enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose will be used as fermentation and chemical feedstocks as soon as the process economics are favourable.

Macroconidium Formation in Submerged Cultures by a Nonsporulating Strain of Gibberella Zeae
R. A. Cappellini,J. L. Peterson +1 more
TL;DR: The typical New Jersey corn stalk-rotting strain of G. zeae does not sporulate in laboratory surface culture, and produces abundant, typical macrospores only in shake-based culture.
