Production of α-Amylase from Penicillium chrysogenum under Solid-State Fermentation by Using Some Agricultural By-Products

Solid-state fermentation (SSF) was carried out using corncob leaf (CL), rye straw (RS), wheat straw (WS) and wheat bran (WB) as substrates for α-amylase production by a fungal culture of Penicillium chrysogenum. The effects of moisture level, particle size and inoculum concentration on enzyme synthe...
