  • Title: Xylanase production by Ganoderma lucidum on liquid and solid state fermentation.
    Author: Malarvizhi K, Murugesan K, Kalaichelvan PT.
    Journal: Indian J Exp Biol; 2003 Jun; 41(6):620-6. PubMed ID: 15266910.
    Abstract:
    Ganoderma lucidum, a white rot fungus, was exploited for its potentials to produce xylanase employing shake and solid-state culture conditions. Different culture conditions such as pH, temperature, carbon and nitrogen requirements for its growth and production of xylanase were optimized. The culture media pH 6.0-7.0 and temperatures 30 degrees-35 degrees C significantly promoted the growth as well as xylanase secretion into the media. Xylan and peptone were found to be the suitable carbon and nitrogen sources. Among the different agrowastes used, wheat bran was found to be the best substrate for the test fungus for the production of xylanase than sugarcane bagasse and rice bran in solid-state fermentation.
