Production of cellulase by a wild strain of Chaetomium globosum using delignified oil palm empty-fruit-bunch fibre as substrate
Studies on the feasibility of using delignified oil palm empty-fruit- bunch (OPEFB) fibres as a substrate for cellulase production by Chaetomium globosum strain 414 were carried out in shake-flask cultures containing different types and concentrations of nitrogen source. Peptone, as nitrogen source,...
