Production of amylase from Aspergillus Niger utilizing different agrowaste
Authors

Abstract
Agrowaste utilization with submerged liquid
fermentation (SmF) holds tremendous potential for the production of the enzyme
amylase by Aspergillus niger. In the study 13 fungal isolates were
screened for alpha amylase production and the isolate A-2 later utilized for
production study. Growth of Aspergillus niger was found to be optimum at
room temperature and pH 6.2. Submerged liquid fermentation was carried out
using different substrates namely Wheat bran and Mustard oil cake. Amylase
produced using various substrate was having good activity but mustard oil cake
as a substrate was found best substrate for production as activity of enzyme
was maximum this was followed by 1.85U/ml with wheat bran (1.65 U/ml) and
starch (1.35 U/ml).
