Hemicellulose degrading enzymes play an important role in bioconversion of agro and agro-industrial wastes. In this study, production of hemicellulase by six fungal isolates was determined under submerged culture using corn cobs xylan as a carbon source and enzyme inducer at different incubation periods. The results indicated that Alternariatenuisshowed the lowest enzyme productivity (156.95 ± 2.07U/l)while the highest enzyme production (2,594.44 ± 62.25U/l) was found by Fusariummoniliforme. One-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) revealed maximum enzyme productivity of 10,950.11 ± 98.45 U/l at; corn cobs xylan (6g/l), yeast extract (4g/l), inorganic salts (MgSO4, KH2PO4, CaCl2, FeSO4, and MnSO4), initial pH (5), initial inoculum size (4%), 150 rpm and temperature (30 ). |
