The diversity of fungi, bacteria, yeast, actinomycetes and protozoa were analysed in the gut and casts of Eudrilus eugeniae, Lampito mauritii, Eisenia fetida and Perionyx excavatus, both qualitatively and quantitatively as influenced by different feed substrates like clay loam soil, cowdung and pressmud. While actinomycetes (Streptomyces albus, S. somaliensis, Nocardia asteroides, N. caviae and...

This study aimed to investigate anaerobic co-digestion of palm oil mill effluent (POME) with cassava peels (CP) and cabbage waste (CW) for biomethane production. The digestion (AD) in 10L capacity bioreactors loaded separately three different ratios (3L/ 520g, 3L/ 600g 680g) POME/CP, POME/CW POME only (control) was operated under ambient temperature (25 - 36⁰C) pH range 6.5 8.5 45 days. Standar...

The objective of this study is to evaluate the occurrence of fungi in aerobic and anoxic activated sludge from membrane bioreactors (MBRs). Thirty-six samples of both aerobic and anoxic activated sludge were taken from 2 MBR treating domestic wastewater. Over a period of eight months 2 samples from each plant were taken per month. The samples were prepared for count and definition of fungi. The...

Phenotypic characteristics of physiology and morphology of 71 strains belonging to the genus Dipodascus de Lagerheim were examined. The GC contents of genomic DNAs of 46 strains were calculated from the thermal denaturation curves using the spectrophotometric method. The first derivatives of the melting curves revealed that the DNAs of these strains are heterogeneous; four categories could be r...

Yeasts isolated from a freshly tapped palm wine obtained from Akure, Nigeria were identified as Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Debaryomyces hansenii, Geotrichum lactis and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii. Each of the isolates was used to ferment wheat flour dough and baked. Sensory analysis of the doughs was carried out using leavening, texture, aroma, taste and appearance. Sacch...
