Statistical optimization of solid-state fermentation for the production of fungal inulinase from apple pomace

The present work was designed to determine the suitability of apple pomace for inulinase production from Mucor circinelloides by solid-state fermentation (SSF). Central composite rotatable deign (CCRD) matrix (15 runs) of RSM was experimentally executed to investigate the influence of moisture, pH and fermentation time on fungal inulinase production from apple pomace by SSF. SSFs were performed at flask-level at 30 °C. Under optimized conditions...
