The project was carried out to obtain maximum yield of L-asparaginase from Aspergillus niger using by-products of agro wastes incorporated with organic salts in submerged fermentation process. The main objective of the project was to study the kinetic parameters of L-asparaginase productivity. After optimization maximum enzyme activity (2.83U/mL±0.065) was achieved using corn steep liquor as a substrate and with 4% inoculum, pH 6.5, 1% substrate concentration, 96 hrs fermentation time period and 1% glucose was used as additional supplement to the growth media to obtain better yield of L-asparaginase. This study showed that glucose concentration beyond 1% suppressed the enzymatic activity. From the results it can be concluded that L-Asparaginase production was optimized when cheap agro-waste products were used as a substrate at low concentrations and under acidic conditions. Its relative stability in acidic pH conditions make it ideal for applications in health care systems and pharmaceutical industry.

The conditions for cellulase production were studied with the mixed germs of Aspergillus niger (A.niger) and Trichoderma viride (R.viride) using straw stalk powder as carbon recourse by solid-state fermentation (SSF). The conditions of the mixed strains SSF were optimized by single factor experiments and orthogonal experiments in four aspects: the inoculation ratio, the bran-straw mass ratio, fermentation time and the filled volume. The optimal SSF conditions of the mixed strains were as follows: inoculation ratio of R.viride to A.niger was 1, the bran-straw mass ratio was 0.3, the time of fermentation was four days and the filled volume is 100 mL /1000 mL. The enzyme activity of FPA, CMC and β-glucosidase are 5.29 IU/mL, 9.33 IU/mL and 49.91 IU/mL in the optimal cultivation condition, which were 2.28~2.47 times, 2.39~2.45 times, 1.38~2.09 times as high as single-germ fermentation, respectively. The enzyme activity of cellulose from the mixed fermentation was higher than that from the fermentation of single bacteria.

The pulp water as byproduct of cocoa beans fermentation is  potential to be used as a raw material for making cocoa vinegar,  but unfortunately the content of acetic acid is relatively low. So  that, it is necessary to increase the content of acetic acid, by  performed further fermentation method with several addition of  carbon sources (sugar and alcohol) and fermentation time. The  purposes of this research were: (1) to study the effect of the  addition of sugar, alcohol and fermentation time on different  urther fermentation method on the characteristics of cocoa vinegar  and (2) to determine the optimal further fermentation  method and fermentation time for the production of cocoa vinegar  with the highest content of acetic acid. Several  fermentation methods were conducted by using three different  methods e.g.the alcoholic and acetic acid fermentation (2 stages),  acetic acid fermentation (1 stage), and fermentation  without inoculum (natural). The experimental design of this study was using a factorial BRD two factors on the 2 stages and the 1 stage fermentation method, as well as the simple RBD on the  natural fermentation. The first factor on the 2 stages fermentation methods used two different inoculum e.g. Saccharomyces  cerevisiae and Acetobacter aceti, 4 different concentration of sugar (4, 6, 8 and 10 %), while on the 1 stage fermentation method  used inoculum Acetobacter aceti, is 4 different concentrations of  alcohol addition (6, 8, 10, and 12 %), while the second factor is  the same, namely 6 levels of fermentation time (0, 5, 10, 15, 20,  and 25 days). Meanwhile, the treatment of fermentation time  on the natural fermentation method was the same as the  second factor. All methods of fermentation were performed at  room temperature in 2 blocks/replications.The results showed  that: 1) the characteristics of cocoa vinegar and OD660 of watery  pulp were affected by : (1) the treatment of the sugar addition  and fermentation time and their interaction on the 2 stages  fermentation method by the treatment of the alcohol addition and  fermentation time, their interaction on the 1 stage  fermentation method, and by the treatment of fermentation time  on the natural fermentation method, and (2) the cocoa vinegar  with the highest content of acetic acid was produced on the 2  stages fermentation method by the addition of 6 % sugar within  25 days (2.35 %), on the 1 stage fermentation method by the   ddition of 10 % alcohol within 20 days (3.37 %), and on the  natural fermentation method within 15 days (2.65 %),  respectively. Our result showed that the 1 stage fermentation  method with the addition of 10 % alcohol using inoculum of  Acetobacter aceti within 20 days is the most optimal further  fermentation method for the production of cocoa vinegar.ABSTRAKCairan pulpa hasil samping fermentasi biji kakao berpotensi  sebagai bahan baku pembuatan cuka kakao, tetapi kadar asam asetat yang dihasilkan relatif rendah. Untuk itu, perlu dilakukan  upaya peningkatan kadar asam asetat antara lain dengan melakukan beberapa metode fermentasi lanjutan dengan variasi penambahan sumber karbon (gula dan alkohol) dan lama fermentasi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah: (1) mengkaji pengaruh  penambahan gula, alkohol dan lama fermentasi pada metode  fermentasi lanjutan yang berbeda terhadap karakteristik cuka  kakao dan (2) menetapkan metode fermentasi lanjutan dan  lama fermentasi yang optimal untuk produksi cuka kakao dengan kadar asam asetat tertinggi. Metode fermentasi lanjutan yang  dilakukan terdiri dari 3 metode yaitu: fermentasi alkohol dan  asam asetat (2 tahap), fermentasi asam asetat (1 tahap), dan  fermentasi tanpa inokulum (alami). Rancangan percobaan pada  penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK)  faktorial 2 faktor pada metode fermentasi 2 tahap dan 1 tahap, serta RAK faktor tunggal pada fermentasi alami. Faktor I pada  metode fermentasi 2 tahap yang menggunakan inokulum Saccharomyces cerevisiae dan Acetobacter aceti, adalah  penambahan gula 4 konsentrasi (4, 6, 8, dan 10 %), dan pada metode fermentasi 1 tahap, yang menggunakan inokulum  Acetobacter aceti, adalah penambahan alkohol 4 konsentrasi (6,  8, 10, dan 12 %), sedangkan faktor II lama fermentasi (0, 5, 10,  15, 20, dan 25 hari). Sementara itu perlakuan lama fermentasi pada metode fermentasi alami sama seperti pada  faktor II. Semua metode fermentasi dilakukan pada suhu kamar  dalam 2 kelompok. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa: (1)  karakteristik cuka kakao dan OD660 cairan pulpa dipengaruhi  oleh perlakuan penambahan gula dan lama fermentasi serta  interaksinya pada metode fermentasi 2 tahap dan oleh perlakuan penambahan alkohol dan lama fermentasi serta  interaksinya pada fermentasi 1 tahap, serta oleh perlakuan lama  fermentasi alami, dan (2) cuka kakao dengan kadar asam asetat  tertinggi masing-masing dihasilkan pada fermentasi 2  tahap dengan penambahan gula cenderung 6 % dalam waktu 25 hari (2,35 %), fermentasi 1 tahap dengan penambahan alkohol 10 % dalam waktu 20 hari (3,37 %), dan fermentasi alami dalam  waktu 15 hari (2,65 %). Dengan demikian metode fermentasi 1  tahap dengan penambahan alkohol 10 % menggunakan  inokulum Acetobacter aceti dalam waktu 20 hari merupakan metode fermentasi lanjutan yang paling optimal untuk produksi cuka kakao.

Aglycone-type soy isoflavones have higher biological activity than glycoside-type soy isoflavones. Bean dregs are rich in glycoside-type soy isoflavones. In order to improve the biological activity of soy isoflavones in bean dregs, the Lactobacillus plantarum PL70a was screened and the fermentation process of converting glycoside-type soy isoflavones into aglycone-type in bean dregs was optimized by single-factor experiments and the response surface methodology. The optimal fermentation process was as follows: (NH4)2SO4 was added in an amount of 0.17%, glucoamylase was added in an amount of 0.87%, inoculation amount was 17%, sucrose was added in an amount of 1.3%, and fermentation time was 3 days. Under this process, the content of aglycone-type soy isoflavones in bean dregs significantly increased. Trypsin inhibitors and antigen proteins were almost removed. The fermentation process provides a good reference for the low-cost processing of high-quality soy isoflavone aglycone food.

In order to improve the utilization rate of the milk thistle residue, this study used the synergistic fermentation of multiple strains and proteases to increase the small peptide content of the fermented feed produced by the milk thistle residue. Taking the small peptide content of the milk thistle residue fermented feed as an indicator, the optimal fermentation process was obtained by single-factor optimization experiments and the response surface methodology. The optimal fermentation process was as follows: fermentation time of 7 days, inoculum size of 15%, inoculation ratio of aerobic strains: anaerobic strains = 1: 2, solid-state fermentation water content of 66%, fermentation temperature of 36℃, and amount of protease was 0.25% acid protease+0.25% bromelain. Under the above process, the small peptide content of the fermented feed from milk thistle residue was greatly improved to 57.86%. These results inferred that the added proteases were beneficial to the growth of fermentative microorganisms, the secretion of protease and the increase of the small peptide content.
