Solid-state fermentation

TL;DR: Solid-state fermentation has emerged as a potential technology for the production of microbial products such as feed, fuel, food, industrial chemicals and pharmaceutical products and with continuity in current trends, SSF technology would be well developed at par with submerged fermentation technology in times to come.

Biotechnological potential of agro-industrial residues. I: sugarcane bagasse

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the recent developments on processes and products developed for the value addition of sugarcane bagasse through the biotechnological means, focusing on more recent developments of the past 8-10 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

New developments in solid state fermentation: I-bioprocesses and products.

TL;DR: SSF processes offer potential advantages in bioremediation and biological detoxification of hazardous and toxic compounds and appear to be a promising one for the production of value-added ‘low volume-high cost’ products such as biopharmaceuticals.

Water Relations of Food Spoilage Microorganisms

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the effects of the status of the water in the solution or substrate on the growth of molds, yeasts, and bacteria and to what extent these findings are applicable to all microorganisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Engineering aspects of solid state fermentation

TL;DR: The work carried out at the Central Food Technological Research Institute, Mysore, on the development of a large-scale solid state fermenter, comparative cost estimation of SSF and submerged fermentation as well as development of know-how for production of a variety of food enzymes, has led to the commercial exploitation of the technology by industry as mentioned in this paper.

Culture Method to Study Fungal Growth in Solid Fermentation

TL;DR: In this article, a new culture method was described to study the growth of Aspergillus niger on cassava meal in the solid state using preparations of the cooked starchy substrate as a homogeneous granulated product containing spores, salts and water.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of moisture and temperature on growth and spore germination in some fungi.

TL;DR: All the isolates were most tolerant of low water activity at temperatures close to the optimum but in some species the optimum and maximum temperatures were higher at reduced water activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

A millennium of fungi, food, and fermentation.

TL;DR: Procedures for the pure culture preparation of some fermented but nonalcoholic foods are outlined, including tempeh, ragi, sufu, shoyu, ang-kak, tea fungus, and miso.
