Abstract

Cellulase enzymes are belonging to the hydrolytic group of enzymes facilitates the sugar release and its bioconversion into different valuable industrial products. Isolated micro fungi from rice straw by dilution plating pouring method studied for playing a various role in industries as well as in agriculture application. Various micro-fungi show enzymatic degradation of lignocellulosic material. The present study optimized the growing conditions for cellulase enzymes production from A.fumigatus. Optimization of various growth conditions such as temperature, different pH level and nitrogen source were studied for the production of enzyme carboxymethyl cellulase during this study. The result showed that A. fumigatus produced highest cellulase activity (3.546 IU/ml) at pH 7.0 and temperature 300C with yeast extract and Fpase activity (0.653 IU/ml) through solid state fermentation. In future agriculture applications and in industries the cellulase enzyme production attains a crucial role to acquire biodegradable yield.
