Effects of Tween 80 and rhamnolipid on the extracellular enzymes of Penicillium simplicissimum isolated from compost

Abstract

Extracellular enzymes of microorganisms play an important role in the decomposition of macromolecules in the composting process. In this study, the effects of Tween 80 and rhamnolipid on the extracellular amylase, carboxymethyl cellulose enzyme (CMCase), xylanase and protease of Penicillium simplicissimum isolated from compost were investigated during solid-state fermentation. The results showed that the enzyme activities of amylase, CMCase and …
