Abstract excerpt
Cellulase production was investigated in pH-controlled cultures of Acremonium cellulolyticus. The response to culture pH was investigated for three cellulolytic enzymes, carbomethyl cellulase (CMCase), avicelase, and beta-glucosidase. Avicelase and beta-glucosidase showed similar profiles, with maximum activity in cultures at pH 5.5-6. The CMCase activity was highest in a pH 4 culture. At an acidic pH, the ratios...
