Solid-state fermentation

TL;DR: In this article, a Doehlert experimental design was applied to optimize T. trogii lignocellulolytic enzyme production in solid-state fermentation, and the impact on enzyme production of three quantitative variables, namely pH, copper and nitrogen concentrations, was investigated by using a wood-based solid medium supplemented with malt extract.

TL;DR: The critical analysis of recent literature covering production of cellulase in solid state fermentation using advance technologies such as consolidated bioprocessing, metabolic engineering and strain improvement, and circumscribes the strategies to improve the enzyme yield are summarized.

TL;DR: The nitrogen sources peptone, yeast extract and tri-ammonium citrate, along with NaH2PO4.2H2O and Tween 80, were found to influence productivity, which can be further optimized for increased lactic acid production.

TL;DR: The Aspergillus niger strain MTCC 2594 lipase was optimally active at pH 7·0 and 37°C, and was found to be stable between pH 4·0–10–0 and 4–50°C and it could be effectively used for the removal of triglyceride soils in laundry.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of water content, dosage of wheat bran and initial pH value in solid substrate on cellulase synthesis were studied in shallow tray fermentors and the highest cellulase activity (158 IFPU/g koji) was obtained in the second fermentation batch.
