Xylanase Production from Aspergillus niger

Xylanase execute a large variety of function and have many important in biotechnological
application. Its application in paper industry, pulp industry, increases the self life of bread, food ndustry. The
production of xylanase was investigated in submerged culture of Aspergillus niger. This study was carried out
in isolation and screening of xylanase enzyme from the Aspergillus niger fungus. This fungus is isolated from
agricultural soil, decayed bread and waste material. The maximum concentration of xylanase enzyme found at
250
c and also maximum production occurred when the pH was controlled at 6.0 during the fermentation. It
have the maximum concentration. It has lot of industrial application.
