The strains capable of degrading cellulose have attracted much interest because of their applications in straw resource utilization in solid-state fermentation (SSF). However, achieving high spore production in SSF is rarely reported. The production of spores from Streptomyces griseorubens JSD-1 was investigated in shaker-flask cultivation in this study. The optimal carbon, organic nitrogen and inorganic nitrogen sources were sucrose, yeast extract and urea, respectively. Plackett–Burman design (PBD) was adopted to determine the key medium components, and the concentration levels of three components (urea, NaCl, MgSO4·7H2O) were optimized with the steepest ascent path and central composite design (CCD), achieving 1.72 × 109 CFU/g of spore production. Under the optimal conditions (urea 2.718% w/v, NaCl 0.0697% w/v, MgSO4·7H2O 0.06956% w/v), the practical value of spore production was 1.69 × 109 CFU/g. The determination coefficient (R2) was 0.9498, which ensures an adequate credibility of the model.

The experiment was conducted to isolate and screen fungal strain and optimization of solid-state fermentation conditions for enhanced production of β-glucosidase. Different fungal cultures were isolated and screened for β-glucosidase production. The physicochemical and nutritional parameters were optimized for enhanced production of β-glucosidase from higher producer. Among all the isolates the isolate which exhibited highest β-glucosidase potential was identified and assigned the code as Aspergillus niger MBT-2. The optimum β-glucosidase production was obtained in M5 medium containing wheat bran after 72 hrs of incubation at 40°C, pH 6 and 20 ml of moisture contents. In addition to this 2% fructose and 2% yeast extract proved to be best carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively and gave maximal enzyme productivity. The exploitation of agricultural by products as a substrate reduced the production cost of enzyme and makes the process economical. The Aspergillus niger MBT-2 has promising potential of bioconversion of low-cost material into valuable product like β-glucosidase.

Plackett-Burman design was employed for screening 18 nutrient components for the production of inulinase using Garlic as substrate by Streptomyces sp. in solid-state fermentation (SSF). From the experiments, 4 nutrients, namely, NH4NO3, MnSO4⋅7H2O, Soya bean cake, and K2HPO4 were found to be most significant nutrient components. Hence, these 4 components are selected. The selected components were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). The optimum conditions are NH4NO3—6.63 mg/gds, MnSO4⋅7H2O—26.16 mg/gds, Soya bean cake—60.6 mg/gds, and K2HPO4—5.24 mg/gds. Under these conditions, the production of inulinase was found to be 76 U/gds.

Different fungal strains were isolated from the local soil, fruits and vegetables on the basis of pectin hydrolysis. All the isolated strains were identified through microscopic studies and screened for pectinase production using solid state fermentation. The fungal strain identified as Aspergillus niger IBT-7 showed the highest pectinase production. The selected strain was further subjected to optimization through different physical and nutritional parameters to enhance the production of pectinase. Amongst seven different media tested M1 containing rice bran, moistened with Czapek’s nutrient medium showed the highest pectinase production. During optimization maximum pectinase production was achieved after 72 hrs of incubation at 30 ml of moisture content, pH 5.0 and 30°C. Xylose (1.5%) and yeast extract (1%) proved to be best supplemented carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively which gave the highest pectinase production (39.1 U/ml/min).

The production of Pectic enzymes by Aspergillus niger was studied under solid state fermentation (SSF). The effect of fermentation condition such as substrate concentration, inoculum volume, incubation time, moistening agent, inducers and organic and inorganic nitrogen sources was studied for enzyme production. Culture conditions were optimized for maximal yield of enzyme. The solid substrate wheat bran was most suitable for pectic enzyme production under SSF. Enzyme production was found maximum after 10 days of incubation. Lactose was found to be most effective as inducer. Gelatin as organic nitrogen source and ammonium nitrate as inorganic nitrogen source yielded high enzyme titres.
