â¢Pretreatment with P. ostreatus could promote the production of cellulases.â¢Bamboo-shoot shell could be converted into soluble inducer of cellulases.â¢The inducer maybe a lignin derivative without aromatic ring.â¢The revelation is useful for cellulase industry.
The synthesis of cellulase in filamentous fungi can be triggered by several inducers. In this study, a bamboo-shoot shell pretreated with Pleurotus ostreatus could promote the formation of cellulases in Aspergillus niger. Further identification, including UPLC-TOF-MS, ultrafiltration, and FT-IR, denoted that the soluble inducer was not a traditional disaccharide but a type of modified lignin polymer. This revelation may result in incipient strategies to ameliorate cellulase productivity.
