Application

Application Comment Organism
degradation maximum saccharification is obtained from treatment of cane bagasse by partially purified xylanase from Thermomyces lanuginosus A72 and Thermomyces lanuginosus YMN72 after 24 hrs of incubation. The maximum production of ethanol and xylitol is obtained after 48 and 24 h fermentation giving 22.48 g/l and 13.54 g/l, respectively, in enzyme broth of Thermomyces lanuginosus YMN72 using Candida tropicalis EMCC2 Thermomyces lanuginosus

Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Thermomyces lanuginosus Thermomyces lanuginosus A72 shows xylanase activity (411 U/ml) on cane bagasse (1.0%) as carbon source, while Thermomyces lanuginosus YMN72 produces highest xylanase activity (428 U/ml) when grown on corn cobs (1.5%) as carbon source. Both strains reach a maximum value of xylanase activity at pH 6.6. Sodium nitrate (0.3 % w/v) is the best nitrogen source for Thermomyces lanuginosus A72, where xylanase activity reaches 563U/mg., ammonium nitrate (0.1% w/v) is the best nitrogen source for Thermomyces lanuginosus YMN72 giving 946U/ml. Gamma radiation increases xylanase production up
