Degradation of lignocellulosic wastes by Saccobolus saccoboloides (fungi, ascomycotina)

| Sumario: | The ability to degrade organic solid wastes by the fungus Saccobolus saccoboloides was studied. The organism, unusual in such studies, was cultivated in synthetic liquid media with agitation, and on day 8 of growth the mycelium was passed to flasks with trimming. On day 16 of growth, the trimming degradation was assesed by carboximethylcelulase, xylanase, and amylase activities evaluation, and NaOH 1% hydrolysis. Later on, the type of waste was modified (trimming, filter paper, newspaper, cardboard, sawdust and wood shaving were used) as well as the mass (300-1800 mg/flask). In these cases the enzymatic activities increased between 300 and 600 mg/flask. The total separation of the cellular components in all types of paper and cardboard was observed, together with a high loss of weight. S. saccoboloides was not able to degrade the wood wastes. |
