| Solid-state fermentation was carried out for the production of alpha-amylase using Aspergillus oryzae. Different oil cakes such as coconut oil cake (COC) sesame oil cake (SOC), groundnut oil cake (GOC), palm kernel cake (PKC) and olive oil cake (OOC) were screened to be used as substrate for the enzyme production and also compared with wheat bran (WB). GOC was found to be the best producer of the enzyme among these. Combination of WB and GOC (1:1) resulted higher enzyme titres than the individual substrates. Maximum amount of enzyme (9196 U/gds) was obtained when SSF was carried out using WB + GOC, having initial moisture of 64% and supplemented with lactose and ammonium nitrate (1% each) at 30ºC for 72h using 2 mL spore suspension (6x10(7)spores/ml).... |

| Rice bran was used as the substrate for screening nine strains of Rhizopus sp. for neutral protease production by solid-state fermentation. The best producer, Rhizopus microsporus NRRL 3671, was used for optimizing the process parameters for enzyme production. Fermentation carried out with 44.44 % initial moisture content at a temperature of 30 C for 72 h was found to be the optimum for enzyme secretion by the fermenting organism. While most of the carbon supplements favored enzyme production, addition of casein resulted in a marginal increase in protease yield. Fermentation was then carried out under optimized conditions to obtain the crude extract of the enzyme, which was partially purified by precipitation and dialysis. A 3-fold increase in the enzyme... |
