THE EFFECT OF FERMENTATION ON CELLULOLYTIC ENZYME ACTIVITY / 微生物学通报

ABSTRACT

Four cellulolytic strains, which can be used as feed additive, were studied under the conditions of various temperature, incubation time, and anaerobic process, and examined the changes of their cell protein content, cellulase and hemi-cellulase activity. The results show 1) The maximum cellulolytic enzyme activities were observed incubation 20h; 2) Constant medium temperature 28℃ was adequate to the growth of the 4 strains ; 3) anaerobic condition, 39℃±2℃ and fermentation 12h, 24h, 36h, the tested strains can growth well in PDA plate, however, the cellulolytic enzyme activities and growth of the tested strains were influenced adversely when fermentation 48h. The experiment provide many important basis for the strains production, storage and utilization.
