Solid substrate fermentation (SSF) of rice husk using aspergillus niger
Rice husk is one of the highly potential lignocellulosic wastes that can be used as substrate for the production of cellulase via solid state fermentation. The present work was aimed to obtain cellulase from locally isolated Aspergillus niger cultured on rice husk via solid substrate fermentation (S...
