Utilization of orange peel, a food industrial waste, in the production of exo-polygalacturonase by pellet forming Aspergillus sojae
(Springer, 2015-03)
The production of exo-polygalacturonase (exo-PG) from orange peel (OP), a food industrial waste, using Aspergillus sojae was studied in submerged culture. A simple, low-cost, industrially significant medium formulation, ...
Microparticle-enhanced polygalacturonase production by wild type Aspergillus sojae
(Springer, 2017-12)
Polygalacturonases (PGs), an important industrial enzyme group classified under depolymerases, catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of the polygalacturonic acid chain through the introduction of water across the oxygen bridge. ...
Enhanced production of exo-polygalacturonase from agro-based products by Aspergillus sojae
(North Carolina University, 2011-08)
Aspergillus sojae has been previously shown to produce exo-polygalacturonase (exo-PG) in synthetic media, where the potential of the organism to utilize agricultural substrates was not considered so far. In this study, the ...
Effect of physicochemical parameters on the polygalacturonase of an Aspergillus sojae mutant using wheat bran, an agro-industrial waste, via solid-state fermentation
(Wiley, 2016-08-15)
BACKGROUND: Polygalacturonases (PGs) are valuable enzymes of the food industry; therefore it is of great importance to discover new and GRAS PG-producing microbial strains. In this study, PG enzyme produced from a high PG ...
Partial purification of a polygalacturonase from a new Aspergillus sojae mutant and its application in grape mash maceration
(Wiley, 2017-03)
The use of polygalacturonase (PG) preparations in winemaking promotes the release of phenolic compounds. A PG from a new source, Aspergillus sojae mutant, was semi-purified and tested for grape mash maceration. Crude extract ...
Valorization of wheat bran for the production of polygalacturonase in SSF of Aspergillus sojae
(Elsevier, 2014-03)
Wheat bran, among various agro industrial by products, screened for the production of polygalacturonase (PG) in solid-state fermentation of Aspergillus sojae mutant strain, was found to be the most suitable substrate without ...
Microbial strain improvement for enhanced polygalacturonase production by Aspergillus sojae
(Springer, 2014)
Strain improvement is a powerful tool in commercial development of microbial fermentation processes. Strains of Aspergillus sojae which were previously identified as polygalacturonase producers were subjected to the ...
Production of bioethanol from apple pomace by using cocultures: Conversion of agro-industrial waste to value added product
(Elsevier, 2015-08-01)
Direct fermentation of cellulosic biomass to bioethanol has been very promising and hence attracted attention in recent years. In this study, bioethanol production from apple pomace hydrolysate (agro-industrial waste ...
Bioconversion of wheat bran for polygalacturonase production by Aspergillus sojae in tray type solid-state fermentation
(Elsevier, 2016-01)
Wheat bran was tested as the solid substrate for the tray-type solid-state fermentation (SSF) production of polygalacturonase (PG) enzyme by A. sojae mutant strain - a high-PG activity producer. PG production of A. sojae ...
Evaluation of agro-industrial wastes, their state, and mixing ratio for maximum polygalacturonase and biomass production in submerged fermentation
(Taylor & Francis, 2015-10)
The potential of important agro-industrial wastes, apple pomace (AP) and orange peel (OP) as C sources, was investigated in the maximization of polygalacturonase (PG), an industrially significant enzyme, using an industrially ...
