Article Synopsis
  • The study examined how well xylanases are produced by both the wild type and a mutant strain (M7) of the fungus Thermomyces lanuginosus using various substrates.
  • M7 showed significantly increased xylanase production on glucose-based media, producing 8.8 times more than the wild type, with optimal results seen using a mix of corncob and corn steep liquor.
  • In biobleaching tests, enzymes from the mutant reduced the kappa number and chlorine demand more effectively than those from the wild type, suggesting that the mutant's enzymes have promising potential for industrial applications.
