Improvement of bilirubin oxidase productivity of Myrothecium verrucaria and studies on the enzyme overproduced by the mutant strain in the solid-state fermentation.

Abstract excerpt

Bilirubin oxidase has applications in the health and environmental sectors. Hence, several attempts have been made to increase enzyme yields. However, improvements were not very high. We report here the development of a mutant strain of Myrothecium verrucaria by using UV-rays, which produced 28.8 times more enzyme compared with the parent and was higher than the yields reported in earlier submerged cultures. The...
