  • Title: Lipase production by Penicillium restrictum using solid waste of industrial babassu oil production as substrate.
    Author: Palma MB, Pinto AL, Gombert AK, Seitz KH, Kivatinitz SC, Castilho LR, Freire DM.
    Journal: Appl Biochem Biotechnol; 2000; 84-86():1137-45. PubMed ID: 10849864.
    Abstract:
    Lipase, protease, and amylase production by Penicillium restrictum in solid-state fermentation was investigated. The basal medium was an industrial waste of babassu oil (Orbignya oleifera) production. It was enriched with peptone, olive oil, and Tween-80. The supplementation positively influenced both enzyme production and fungal growth. Media enriched with Tween-80 provided the highest protease activity (8.6 U/g), whereas those enriched with peptone and olive oil led to the highest lipase (27.8 U/g) and amylase (31.8 U/g) activities, respectively.
