BIOCONVERSION OF ECO-WASTE TO PECTINASE ENZYME BY FUNGAL ISOLATES

PRIYA V, NITHISH P, ASWIN G

Abstract

This study investigated production of pectinase enzyme and its application in sewage water treatment. Fungal isolates namely A. oryzae, A. niger, A. fumigatus, A. flavus were screened for pectinase production by using liquid state fermentation. Of the 4 selected species A. oryzae showed high and effective pectinase production. The substrate used for producing A. oryzae was kiwi fruit waste. High pectinase production was observed at czapek-dox agar medium, pH 7.0 with fermentation period 3 days. The carbon source used for pectinase production in A. oryzae was lemon peel and nitrogen equivalent used for pectinase production in A. oryzae was sodium nitrate. The aim of this study is utilization of agro-wastes for cost effective production and to provide ecofriendly method for pectinase production in large scale.
