Abstract

Aspergillus sp. CX-l strain grown on microcrystalline cellulose resulted in the accumulation of high levels of cellulase and xylanase activities that were higher by two to four folds than those from the conventional commercial producer, Trichoderma reesei QM9414. Aspergillus sp. CX-1 demonstrated greater thermo stability and better catalytic characteristics of total cellulase activity (FPase) as compared to T. reesei and Aspergillus niger F-2039.
