Enhanced fructooligosaccharides and inulinase production by a Xanthomonas campestris pv. phaseoli KM 24 mutant.

Xanthomonas campestris pv phaseoli produced an extracellular endoinulinase (9.24 +/- 0.03 U mL(-1)) in an optimized medium comprising of 3% sucrose and 2.

Production of inulinase by Xanthomonas campestris pv phaseoli using onion (Allium cepa) and garlic (Allium sativum) peels in solid state cultivation.

Aims: To access inulinase production by Xanthomonas campestris pv phaseoli using the submerged and solid state cultivation (SSC) methods.

Methods And Results: Various carbon sources, inulin-rich solid substrates and pure synthetic inulin were tested for their efficiency in inulinase induction. The highest inulinase production (17.

Production and partial characterization of cellulase free xylanase by Bacillus subtilis C 01 using agriresidues and its application in biobleaching of nonwoody plant pulps.

Aims: To optimize the solid-state cultivation conditions for xylanase production using agriresidues and testing the biobleaching efficiency of xylanase on nonwoody plant fibre materials.

Methods And Results: An extracellular cellulase free xylanase was produced from Bacillus subtilis C 01 using various inexpensive substrates under solid-state cultivation. High level of xylanase production (135 IU gds(-1)) was observed when grown on wheat bran followed by maize powder (50 IU gds(-1)).
