Background: Plants were rich in lignocellulose and cellulosic content which forms highly complex structure and this needs effective enzymatic catalyzes reaction for useful product development. Various industries like textiles, paper, agriculture and biofuel need enzymatic treatment (cellulase) which costs up to the total cost production of 40% to convert into the useful product.
Methods: To get the better of this economical contingency, the cellulase cost was reduced by immobilizing with Magnetic Nanoparticle (MNP’s). It is hypothesized that cellulose enzyme immobilization with magnetic nanoparticle can meet the economically feasible cellulase production. Present study describes the cellulase molecular characterization isolated from cellulolytic bacteria and its growth parameters were optimized for its enzyme production. The cellulolyt.. View more»
