TL;DR: Xylanase activity of 1721 Ug(-1) substrate was obtained by A. carneus M34 in a six-day period at 30 degrees C, which was a 227% increase compared with that obtained before applying the Plackett-Burman and response surface methodology experimental design.

TL;DR: The effects of a low oxygen concentration on growth at the levels of individual hyphae, colonies and overcultures, and on alpha-amylase production in overculture are described and the kinetics of growth of A. oryzae are simplified to zero-order kinetics in coupled diffusion/reaction models.

TL;DR: Several filamentous fungi were grown on solid state fermentation systems and selected for their highest yield in lipolytic activity, low protease levels and dairy flavor generation.
Abstract: Several filamentous fungi were grown on solid state fermentation systems and selected for their highest yield in lipolytic activity, low protease levels and dairy flavor generationP candidum,M miehei andP camembertii were the selected ones A comparison between kinetics in solid and submerged fermentation was performed usingP candidum, with the solid system giving the highest titers and a stable production

TL;DR: The purified Lip2 enzyme presented a particular affinity for ethanol, n-propanol and n-hexanol, with conversion of 92%, 93% and 92%, respectively, after 20 h incubation, and caprylic acid served as the best acyl donor.

TL;DR: The utilization of cassava and it by-products for livestock feeding has long been realized and will be most beneficial for feeding monogastric animals.
Abstract: Nigeria stands as the world's foremost cassava producer with about 26 million tones (FAO, 1993). The leaves and peels, which are by-products of harvesting and processing, constitute 25% of the whole plant. These by-products and the flour constitute a potential source of livestock feed ingredient. The utilization of cassava and it by-products for livestock feeding has long been realized. Various authors have reported their use for feeding poultry (Ravindran, 1991; Sarwat et al, 1988, Long and Adetola, 1983), Pigs (Iyayi, 1986; Iyayi and Tewe, 1988) and ruminants (Smith, 1988). But cassava will be most beneficial for feeding monogastric animals.
