| Summary: | Bioconversion of agricultural residues for lipase production as well as other value added products would
hold a prominent position in future biotechnologies, mainly because of its eco friendliness and flexibility
to both developing and developed countries. Several residues such as straw, bran, oil cakes, among others
attract increasing attention as abundant and cheap renewable feedstock. Many researchers considered
improvement of substrate composition, physical parameters (temperature, pH, moisture content and
particle size), inoculum concentration, and substrate porosity to upgrade and valorize these bioproducts.
Several species of fungi, yeast and bacteria have been used in utilizing the agricultural residues through
fermentation techniques due to their ability to grow on particle surfaces as sources of carbon and energy,
and produce important industrial enzymes including lipases. This review provides an overview of the
present status on the utilization of renewable residues in the form of solid- and liquid-state and their
characteristics for production of lipases using different microbial systems. |
