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 ...
Characterization of three-phase partitioned exo-polygalacturonase from Aspergillus sojae with unique properties
(Elsevier, 2008-04)
Exo-polygalacturonase enzyme produced by Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235 was purified using three-phase partitioning (TPP), an emerging bio-separation technique where a single step as compared to the classical multi-step ...
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 ...
Biochemical and thermal characterization of crude exo-polygalacturonase produced by Aspergillus sojae
(Elsevier, 2008-12-15)
Crude exo-polygalacturonase enzyme (produced by Aspergillus sojae), significant for industrial processes, was characterized with respect to its biochemical and thermal properties. The optimum pH and temperature for maximum ...
Relationship between morphology, rheology and polygalacturonase production by Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235 in submerged cultures
(Elsevier, 2006-12)
A full factorial statistical design, with the factors of, two taxonomically different strains, seven types of seed culture formulations (slants) and two types of fermentation media were used to investigate the effect of ...
Solid-state production of polygalacturonase by Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235
(Elsevier, 2007-01)
The effect of solid substrates, inoculum and incubation time were studied using response surface methodology (RSM) for the production of polygalacturonase enzyme and spores in solid-state fermentation using Aspergillus ...
Optimization of biomass, pellet size and polygalacturonase production by Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235 using response surface methodology
(Elsevier, 2007-04)
A two-step optimization procedure using central composite design with four factors (concentrations of maltrin and corn steep liquor (CSL), agitation speed and inoculation ratio) was used in order to investigate the effect ...
