Optimization and Scale Up of Cellulase-Free Xylanase Production in Solid State Fermentation on Wheat Bran by Cellulosimicrobium sp. MTCC 10645

چکیده
The production of cellulase-free xylanase was investigated with a locally isolated and identified strain, Cellulosimicrobium sp. MTCC 10645 in solid state fermentation. Different fermentation conditions were standardised for the growth and xylanase activity, the optimum being 72 h growth at pH 7.0, cultivation temperature 40°C and substrate to moisture ratio of 1:1.8 (w/v). Among different lignocellulosic substrates wheat bran was found to be best substrate for xylanase production. The inoculum size of 10% resulted in maximum production of xylanase. The enzyme production was stimulated by the addition of yeast extract and casein. Addition of glucose, xylose and carboxy methyl cellulose repressed the production of xylanase. Under optimized conditions, xylanase production in solid state fermentation was 4,962 + 45.08 U/gds.

A thermoalkalophilic and cellulase-free xylanase produced from Arthrobacter sp. MTCC 5214 by solid-state fermentation using wheat bran as a carbon source was evaluated for prebleaching of kraft pulp. The UV absorption spectrum of the compounds released by enzyme treatment showed a characteristic peak at 280 nm, indicating the presence of lignin in the released colouring matter. Enzymatic preble...

Central composite orthogonal design was applied to quantify relations of xylanase production, loss of dry matter and change of pH with four critical variables during solid state fermentation of a mixture of wheat bran and wheat straw on which Aspergillus niger CCUG 33991 was cultivated. The studied variables included the percentage of wheat straw, temperature, moisture content, and fermentati...

The most promising application of xylanases (E.C. 3.2.1.8) is in the prebleaching of kraft pulp. The present paper reports bleaching effects of a thermoalkali stable xylanase from Cellulosimicrobium sp. MTCC 10645. The bacterium produced thermo-alkali stable xylanase in a basal medium supplemented with wheat bran (1% w/v), which was optimally active at pH 7.0 and 50°C. The xylanase was stable a...

This study was aimed at enhancing the production of xylanase from an alkaliphilic Bacillus pumilus VLK-1 in submerged fermentation using wheat bran, a cheap and abundantly available agro-residue, through process optimization and to monitor the effect of temperature shift operation on it. The potential of xylanase in saccharification of wheat straw was also investigated. The results showed that ...
