The use of gum arabic and agar gum as binders for the
immobilization of α -amylase on carrier support was studied in a
pilot glass reactor. The result showed that gum arabic binder
sustained enzyme activity up to 24hrs while agar gum could not
exceed 20 hrs. The t1/2 and residual activity after 4 cycles of refuse
were 94hrs, 98% (R2=93%) and 5.3hrs, 13% (R2=89%) for gum
arabic and agar gum systems. The work conclude that gum arabic is
superior to agar gum both for immobilizing α -amylase on a

Pretreated water hyacinth was used as sole carbon source for the production of cellulase enzyme by Rhizopus oryzae PR 7 MTCC 9642 in both liquid state (LSF) and solid state fermentation (SSF) that was measured by the FPase activity. To maximize the FPase production, the critical parameters like substrate concentration, cultivation temperature and pH on enzyme production were optimized using response surface methodology using Central Composite Design (CCD). The LSF was found to be better than SSF

The influence of heat shock induced during the exponential growth phase of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCIM 3095 and NCIM 3287 fermentation of Guava juice were examined. A rapid temperature change from 20°C to 38°C was applied and gives maximum glycerol and ethanol production. The effect of the duration of exposure to a high temperature has been analyzed. By the influence of a heat shock treatment, glycerol production was increased by up to 28% and 44.4 % respectively in NCIM 3095 and 3
