Abstract

The production of xylanase from Aspergillus niger mutant in SSF was optimized by' using statistical experimental designs. An inoculum size of $5{\times}10^5$ spores/g. initial moisture content of 65 %. cultivation time of 5 days and 10 times concentration of basal medium containing 50 times concentration of CSL were optimum for xylanase production ‘ Under the optimized conditions. the activity and productivity of xytanase obtained after 5 days of fermentation were 5.071 IU/gram of rice straw and 14.790 IU/l.h. respectively.
