These bagasse samples were hydrolyzed by cellulase and xylanase enzymes, produced earlier by Penicillium janthinellum NCIM 1171 in the same bagasse polysaccharides production medium. The hydrolysis was carried out by using different concentrations of the enzymes at two different temperatures, 30 and 50 degrees C, taking hydrolysis of Avicel as control. It was found that while the maximum hydrolysis for Avicel was 70% that of some of the bagasse polysaccharides was as high as 95%. The products of hydrolysis were glucose, xylose, and arabinose, as confirmed by high pressure ion chromatography (HPIC). It is interesting to note that arabinose, which constitutes about 10% of the weight of bagasse xylan, could also be released easily by the enzymes. Also, the initial rates of hydrolysis was found to be much higher for the bagasse polysaccharides, and in some cases about 90% of the hydrolysis occurred within 20 h. Amongst all bagasse samples, the sample with (Kappa no. 1.2, lignin content 0.18%) gave the highest degree of hydrolysis at 50 degrees C. Even the bagasse polysaccharide with Kappa no. 16.8 (lignin content 2.5%) underwent greater extent of hydrolysis than Avicel. Apparently, the delignified bagasse medium appears to be a facile medium for the combined hydrolytic action of the cellulase and xylanase enzymes. Considering that sugarcane bagasse is a waste biomass material available in abundance annually, this methodology can be used to value-add to this biomass to produce sugars, which can be fermented to produce biofuels like ethanol.

Successive mutants showed enhanced cellulase production (EMS-UV-8), clearance zone on Avicel containing plate (SM2) and rapid growth on Walseth cellulose agar plates containing 0.2% 2-deoxy-D-glucose (SM3). These mutants were transferred to Walseth cellulose plates containing higher concentration (1.5%) of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (SM4) in which only five mutants showed clearance zone on SM4. All these mutants showed approximately two-fold increase in activity of both FPase and CMCase in shake flask culture when grown on basal medium containing CP-123 (1%) and wheat bran (2.5%). The enzyme preparations from these mutants were used to hydrolyze Avicel. Higher hydrolysis yields of Avicel were obtained with enzyme preparations of EU1. This is the first report on the isolation and selection of mutants based on hydrolysis of Avicel, which is the most crystalline substrate. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
