摘要:In the present study, various lignocellulotic agro-wastes paddy straw, coir pith, sugarcane bagassaeand dried leaf litter were evaluated for cellulase and xylanase enzyme production adopting solid statefermentation with different moisture levels ranging from 0 to 50% by soil isolate of Trichodermaharzianum. The crude enzyme obtained was partially purified by ammonium sulphate precipitation andDEAE cellulose column chromatography. All the wastes supported growth and enzyme production.Maximum cellulase and xylanase production was recorded in paddy straw followed by sugarcanebagassae with 25% moisture content. Both the enzymes retained maximum activity at 60°C and pH 8.0.The partially purified enzyme by ammonium sulphate precipitation at 60% saturation followed by DEAEcellulose column chromatography yields pure xylanase with the molecular weight of 56 and 61 KD.
