Summary
New data for the fed-batch production of cellulases usingTrichoderma reesei Rut. C-30 give additional motivation for this mode of culture as a result of simultaneously high enzyme titres (31 IU FPA/mL), productivities (160 IU FPA L−1 h−1) and yields (477 IU FPA/g cellulose). These results also indicate a strong potential for even further improvements through the optimization of feeding policies.
