Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the conditions for the production of endo beta-1,4 glucanase, a component of cellulase by Aspergillus nidulans MTCC344 under solid state fermentation, using bagasse as the chief substrate. A four-factor-five-level central composite design was employed for experimental design and analysis of the results. Maximum cellulase activity (CMCase was 28.96 U g(-1)) can be attained at the optimum conditions, 16.8 mm bagasse bed height, 60% moisture content, pH 4.25 and temperature 40 degrees C in the solid state fermenter. These data were rather close to the experimental results obtained (CMCase was 28.84 U g(-1)). A. nidulans MTCC344 was able to hydrolyze pretreated bagasse completely after 8 days of incubation with significant endo beta-1,4 glucanase activities. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of bagasse showed structural changes through pretreatment, in favor of enzymatic hydrolysis. Bagasse with alkali pretreatment using sodium hydroxide is a source of lignocelluloses able to improve the yield of endo beta-1,4 glucanase by the strain of A. nidulans. The endo beta-1,4 glucanase produced during the bioconversion of cellulose to glucose by A. nidulans MTCC344 is strongly dependent on the pretreatment given before hydrolysis. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.
