Abstract

Sugarcane wastes were (bagasse and Leaves) pretreated with 0.6N acid and base and the hydrolysates were utilized as carbon source for the growth of Penicillium expansum and the production of amylase. It was found that maximum yield of amylase was achieved (2.6208 units/ml) at 168 hours when Penicillium expansum was grown on pretreated KOH sugarcane leaves mineral medium.
