Possibility of producing pectinase utilizing fruit wastes of cashew, banana, pineapple, and
grape under controlled fermentation with Aspergillus foetidus was studied. Among the
different media composition tried, medium containing 5 g fruit waste+ 0.05 g urea+ 0.25 g
ammonium sulphate supported better growth of the microorganism. Enzyme production was
maximum in the medium with grape waste. As extractant of the enzyme, distilled water was
better than CaCl2. The ideal temperature and duration of fermentation were 40oC and 8 …
Abstract
Possibility of producing pectinase utilizing fruit wastes of cashew, banana, pineapple, and grape under controlled fermentation with Aspergillus foetidus was studied. Among the different media composition tried, medium containing 5 g fruit waste+ 0.05 g urea+ 0.25 g ammonium sulphate supported better growth of the microorganism. Enzyme production was maximum in the medium with grape waste. As extractant of the enzyme, distilled water was better than CaCl2. The ideal temperature and duration of fermentation were 40oC and 8 days respectively.
