Cellulase production in fed-batch culture by Trichoderma reesei Rut C30
1999
Cellulase production by fed-batch cultivation of Trichoderma reesei Rut C30 with various initial concentrations of Solka Floc in 1% wheat bran-containing medium was investigated. The cellulase activity and productivity increased with initial Solka Floc concentration up to 5%. When a total Solka Floc concentration of 90 g/l was used for cellulase production, CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose) and FP (filter paper) activities, productivity, and yield were 359.7 U/ml, 30.61 U/ml, 161 FPU L -1 h -1 , and 340 FPU g -1 , respectively. It was important to maintain a high cell concentration during cellulase production to obtain high cellulase activity and productivity. Cellulase powder was prepared by ammonium sulfate precipitation: FP activity was 396.7 U/g and CMC activity was 6481 U/g.
