Open-access Multi-enzyme complex of white rot fungi in saccharification of lignocellulosic material

ABSTRACT

The multi-enzyme complex (crude extract) of white rot fungi Pleurotus ostreatus, Pleurotus eryngii, Trametes versicolor, Pycnosporus sanguineus and Phanerochaete chrysosporium were characterized, evaluated in the hydrolysis of pretreated pulps of sorghum straw and compared efficiency with commercial enzyme. Most fungi complexes had better hydrolysis rates compared with purified commercial enzyme.

Keywords: Enzymes; Cellulases; Fungus; Hydrolysis
