Unlocking the potential of Algerian lignocellulosic biomass: exploring indigenous microbial diversity for enhanced enzyme and sugar production.

Nowadays, natural resources like lignocellulosic biomass are gaining more and more attention. This study was conducted to analyse chemical composition of dried and ground samples (500 μm) of various Algerian bioresources including alfa stems (AS), dry palms (DP), olive pomace (OP), pinecones (PC), and tomato waste (TW). AS exhibited the lowest lignin content (3.

Box-Behnken design optimization of xylanase and cellulase production by on biomass.

Optimization of xylanase and cellulase production by a newly isolated strain grown on (alfa grass) biomass without pretreatment was carried out using a Box-Behnken design. First, the polysaccharides of dried and ground alfa grass were characterized using chemical methods (strong and diluted acid). The effect of substrate particle size on xylanase and carboxymethylcellulase (CMCase) production by the selected and identified strain was then investigated.

Yellow laccase produced by Trametes versicolor K1 on tomato waste: A comparative study with the blue one produced on semi-synthetic medium.

Laccase production by fungal growth on agrifood waste is still poorly studied. Trametes versicolor K1 isolated from palm bark produced a yellow non glycosylated laccase from tomato waste based medium (TMT) and a blue glycosylated laccase on glucose medium (GLU). Lignocellulosic biomass, such as pinecones (PIN), palm leaves (PLM), olive pomace (OLV), and alfa stems (ALF) have also been used as growth medium for T.

Production of a halotolerant endo-1,4-β-glucanase by a newly isolated Bacillus velezensis H1 on olive mill wastes without pretreatment: purification and characterization of the enzyme.

Facing the critical issue of high production costs for cellulase, numerous studies have focused on improving the efficiency of cellulase production by potential cellulolytic microorganisms using agricultural wastes as substrates, extremophilic cellulases, in particular, are crucial in the biorefinery process because they can maintain activity under harsh environmental conditions. This study aims to investigate the ability of a potential carboxymethylcellulose-hydrolyzing bacterial strain H1, isolated from an Algerian saline soil and identified as Bacillus velezensis, to use untreated olive mill wastes as a substrate for the production of an endo-1,4-β-glucanase. The enzyme was purified 44.

Production and Properties of a Thermostable, pH-Stable Exo-Polygalacturonase Using Aureobasidium pullulans Isolated from Saharan Soil of Algeria Grown on Tomato Pomace.

Polygalacturonase is a valuable biocatalyst for several industrial applications. Production of polygalacturonase using the stain isolated from Saharan soil of Algeria was investigated. Its capacity to produce polygalacturonase was assessed under submerged culture using tomato pomace as an abundant agro-industrial substrate.
