Pectinase and Polygalacturonase Production by a Thermophilic Aspergillus Fumigatus Isolated from Decomposting Orange Peels
A thermophilic fungal strain producing both pectinase and polygalacturonase was isolated after primary screening of 120 different isolates. The fungus was identified as Aspergillus fumigatus Fres. MTCC 4163. Using solid-state cultivation, the optimum levels of variables for pectinase and polygalacturonase (PG) production were determined. Maximal levels of enzyme activities were achieved upon gr...
متن کاملScreening of Paper Industry Effluent for Heavy Metal Absorbing Bacteria
The present study was conceptualized to evaluate the heavy metal absorbing potential of microbes isolated from paper industry effluent. The effluent was used as the source sample, after screening morpho-metrically ten strains were cultured and sub cultured to achieve the pure discrete colonies. Out of ten discrete colonies two were found to have the heavy metal absorbing ability. These two bact...
متن کاملDegradation of bisphenol a by Aspergillus Sp. isolated from tannery industry effluent
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical produced in large quantities for use primarily in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. It is an endocrine disruptor, which can mimic the body’s own hormones such as estrogen and may lead to negative health effects. The tannery effluent was used as a source for isolation of Aspergillus sp. Physiochemical analysis of the effluent sample was do...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of an acidic, thermophilic phytase from a newly isolated Geobacillus stearothermophilus strain DM12
Microbial phytases were applied mainly to animal and human foodstuffs in order to improvemineral bioavailability and food processing. In addition, phytases have potentialbiotechnological application in various other fields, such as environmental protection,aquaculture and agriculture. Bacillus sp. DM12, an isolate from a hot spring, produces phytase,which catalyzes the hydrolysis of phytic acid...
متن کاملBiodesulfurization of Dibenzothiophene by a Newly Isolated Thermophilic Bacteria Strain
Microbiological analyses of soil chronically exposed to petroleum complex compounds of some oil springs in south of Iran resulted in isolation and purification of a new native thermophilic strain which is capable to desulfurize petroleum sulfur compounds by 4-S mechanism. Dibenzothiophene (DBT) was selected as a complex sulfur compound model and many experiments were done to identify the me...
