Bioconversion of tannin to gallic acid from powder of teri pod (Caesalpinia digyna) cover was achieved by the locally isolated fungus, Rhizopus oryzae, in a bioreactor with a perforated float for carrying solid substrate and induced inoculum. Modified Czapek-Dox medium, put beneath the perforated float, with 2% tannic acid at pH 4.5, temperature 32°C, 93% relative humidity, incubated for 3 days with 3-day-old inoculum was optimum for the synthesis of tannase vis-à-vis gallic acid production. Conversion of tannin to gallic acid was 90.9%. Diethyl ether was used as the solvent for extraction of gallic acid from the fermented biomass. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
