Introduction: Celluloses are important industrial enzymes and find application in several industrial processes. Effects of pH, temperature, incubation time, source of carbon and nitrogen were tested in submerged fermentation process in the production of cellulose by Curvularia pallescens isolated from textile effluent. Aims: The present study was attempted in a fungus; Curvularia pallescens isolated from textile effluent for maximizing its production under optimal conditions in submerged fermentation by using inexpensive substrate wheat bran. Study Design: The production medium was prepared in distilled water, supplemented with 4.5% wheat bran, 0.05% KCl, 0.2% KH2PO4, (carbon source), yeast extract (nitrogen source), maintained with pH of  5.5  and incubated at 28ºC for 120 h was found optimal for the production of cellulose. Results: The test fungus achieved maximum FPA activity followed by cellobiohydrolase, endoglucanase and β-glucosidase activity at  46.76, 42.06, 26.94 and 3.56 U/ml respectively at pH 5.5  (Fig. 4). The temperature of 280C produced maximum cellulase activity. Highest activity recorded was of FPA (38.94 U/ml), followed by cellobiohydrolase (30.29 U/ml), endoglucanase (22.41 U/ml), and β-glucosidase (3.98 U/ml). The effect of process parameters such as the effect of temperature, pH and inoculum size was investigated. Maximum cellulase and xylanase having an enzyme activity of 694.45 and 931.25 IU, respectively, were produced at 30ºC incubation temperature. Conclusion: The effect of process parameters such as effect of temperature, pH and inoculum size was also investigated. The production of primary metabolites by microorganisms is highly influenced by their growth, which is determined by the availability of the nutrients in the substrates.

Pectinases are the commercial enzymes that are abundantly employed in various industries like fruit juice industries for clarification, wine indutsry and paper industry for bleaching up pulp. The present work was done on culture conditions optimization for production of pectinases under submerged fermentation using wheat bran as a substrate. Fungal strains were isolated from vegetable waste dump yard soils of Warangal district of Telangana state and screened for their activity on pectin agar medium. Among 30 isolates, two fungal strains showed good activity and identified them as A. niger and A. flavus. The effects of the different carbon and nitrogen sources on pectinases viz. exo-PG, endo-PG, endo-PL and PME by A. niger with 1% wheat bran was carried out in submerged fermentation. These studies revealed that carbon and nitrogen sources have shown considerable influence on enzyme production. Among all the carbon sources tried, sucrose at 1% was shown to be efficient carbon source for all four types of pectinases under investigation. For endo-PG, endo-PL and PME maximum enzyme production were recorded on 8th day of incubation period but for exo-PG enhanced production was observed on 12th day. A. niger could not produce PME on 12th day from 2.50% to subsequent concentrations. Among nine different nitrogen sources were screened, maximum pectinase production was recorded in sodium nitrate at 0.2 % for A. niger. Endo-PG, endo-PL and PME maximum production were recorded on 8th day of incubation and for exo-PG maximum production was observed on 12th day. No PME production was observed in A. niger on 12th day.

Enzymes are biocatalysts in living cells when cells metabolize. All living organisms are produced enzymes, both humans, animals, plants and microorganisms. One of the bacteria that has the potential to produce cellulose (EC 3.2.1.4) enzymes is Serratia marcescens. These bacteria can be isolated from water, soil and digestive tract. This research aims to find out the types of enzymes produced by S. Marcescens, to examine the effect of temperature and incubation time on selected enzyme activity. The type of enzyme test was qualitatively determined by S. marcescens growth on the amylolytic, cellulolytic, pectinolytic and chitinolytic selective medium based on the clear zone. This research was used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The first factor was the incubation time (T) which were 4 hours (T4), 8 hours (T8) and 12 hours (T12). The second factor was the treatment of incubation temperature (S) which were 40oC (S1), 50oC (S2) and 60oC (S3). Each treatment was repeated in 3 times. The data were obtained then analyzed using Anova (α = 0.05). If it is significantly different, furthermore proceed with the T test (BNT). The results showed that S. marcescens qualitatively produced only clear zones in the cellulolytic medium of 5.1 mm. The ANOVA results showed that incubation temperature (S), the interaction between incubation time (T) and incubation temperature (S) were did not have effect on cellulase activity, whereas incubation time (T)  gives a significant effect on cellulase activity were obtained at the incubation time for 12 hours (T12) with a value of 0.27 U / mL

Background:Streptomyces olivaceusMTCC 6820 is a potent microorganism for cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) production through the submerged fermentation process. Statistical optimization of the process parameters for submerged fermentation enhances the production of enzymes.Objective:This work is aimed to optimize the culture conditions for the fermentative production of cholesterol oxidase byStreptomyces olivaceusMTCC 6820 using combined Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) techniques.Methods:The ChOx production (U/ml) was modeled and optimized as a function of six independent variables (culture conditions) using RSM and ANN.Results:ChOx production enhanced 2.2 fold,i.e1.9 ± 0.21 U/ml under unoptimized conditions to 4.2 ± 0.51 U/ml after the optimization of culture conditions. Higher coefficient of determination (R2= 97.09 %) for RSM and lower values of MSE (0.039) and MAPE (3.46 %) for ANN proved the adequacy of both the models. The optimized culture conditions predicted by RSMvs. ANN were pH (7.5), inoculum age (48 h), inoculum size (11.25 % v/v), fermentation period (72 h), incubation temperature (30°C) and shaking speed (175 rpm).Conclusion:The modeling, optimization and prediction abilities of both RSM and ANN methodologies were compared. The values of Pearson correlation coefficient (r) (ANN0.98> RSM0.95), regression coefficient (R2) between experimental activity, RSM and ANN predicted ChOx activity, respectively (ANN0.96> RSM0.90) and Absolute Average Deviation (AAD) for (ANN3.46%< RSM9.87%) substantiated better prediction ability of ANN than RSM. These statistical values indicated the superiority of ANN in capturing the non-linear behavior of the system.

Abstract Background Xylanase is one of the widely applied industrial enzymes with diverse applications. Thermostability and alkali tolerance are the two most desirable qualities for industrial applications of xylanase. In this paper, we reveal the statistical Taguchi optimization strategy for maximization of xylanase production. The important process parameters pH, temperature, concentration of wheat bran, and concentration of yeast extract were optimized using the Taguchi L8 orthogonal array where the 4 factors were considered at 2 levels (high and low). Results The optimized conditions given by model were obtained as follows: (i) pH 6, (ii) culture temperature 35 °C, (iii) concentration of xylan 2% w/v, (iv) concentration of wheat bran 2.5% w/v. The production was scaled upto 2.5 L bioreactor using optimized process parameters. A high xylanase titer of 400 U/ml could be achieved in less than 60 h of culture in the reactor. Conclusion Optimization was successful in achieving about threefold increase in the yield of xylanase. The optimized conditions resulted in a successful scale up and enhancement of xylanase production.

Pectinase Production

Pectinase activity among twelve different fungal strains, Aspergillus niger IM09 was identified as a potential one to produce maximal level 831 U/g at pH 4.0. Media composition, incubation temperature, incubation time, substrate concentration, aeration, inoculum size, assay temperature and nitrogen sources were found to effect pectinase activity. Moisture content did not affect the activity significantly. Media composition was varied to optimize the enzyme production in solid state fermentation. It was observed that the highest pectinase activity of 831.0 U/g was found to produce in presence of yeast extract as a nitrogen source in combination with ammonium sulfate in assay media. Aeration showed positive significant effects on pectinase production 755 U/g at 1000 ml flasks. The highest pectinase production was found at 2 g pectin (521 U/g) used as a substrate. Pectinolytic activity was found to have undergone catabolite repression with higher pectin concentration (205 U/g at 5 g pectin). The incubation period to achieve maximum pectinase activity by the isolated strain Aspergillus niger IM09 was 3 days, which is suitable from the commercial point of view.

Optimization Of Fermentation

Growing environmental concerns and increasing demands from end-use sectors have increased the glob-al market for microbial products. Optimizations of production parameters hold great importance for the industry. The present study was aimed at optimization of submerged state fermentation conditions for production of lignocelluloly-tic enzymes from digested biogas slurry by Phanaerochaete chrysosporium MTCC 787. Enzyme activities for differ-ent enzymes i.e. endoglucanase, exoglucanase, β-glucosidase; xylanase and mannanase; laccase, lignin peroxidase and manganese peroxidise, using P. chrysosporium MTCC 787 were maximum at 50% concentration of digested slur-ry and showed maximum value of xylanase i.e. 187.41U/ml. Effect of temperature (25°C, 30°C and 35°C) on lignocellu-losic bioconversion showed that at 30°C, maximum value of manganese peroxidise (167.5 U/ml) was obtained. High-est enzyme activites were obtained at selected inoculum size i.e. 10⁷spores/ml, e.g. 85.29 U/ml xylanase was ob-tained. Incubation period of 8 days and pH of 7.0 came out to be best conditions for P. chrysosporium MTCC787 to produce maximum enzyme activity e.g. xylanase 95.47U/ml at pH 7.0 and xylanase 144.96U/ml at 8 day incu-bation.This work presents a novel concept in optimization of fermentation process to produce lignocellulolytic en-zymes as this work is focussed on utilization of digested biogas slurry as a substrate for enzyme production and enhancement of the production with microbial source, which is environment friendly.
