Solid Substrate Fermentations

TL;DR: In this paper, solid-state fermentation refers to any fermentation that takes place on solid or semisolid substrate or that occurs in a nutritionally inert solid support, which provides some advantage to the microorganism with respect to access to nutrients.

Effect of particle size of substrate of enzyme production in solid-state fermentation

TL;DR: Asperigillus niger (RRL isolate) produced about 900 units of glucoamylase/g dry substrate containing fungal biomass in solid-state fermentation using wheat bran mixed with corn flour at 10% w/w ratio as substrate, however, substrates with mixed particle sizes gave comparable yields.
