Effect of Static Magnetic Field on Synthesis of Endoglucanase by Trichoderma Reesei—M7

ABSTRACT

Studies have been carried out with the micromycetic strain Trichoderma reesei M-7, producer cellulase enzymes. Spores and vegetative inoculums of the enzyme producer were treated with a static magnetic field with intensity of 5 - 70 mT. The influence of the magnetic field on the activity of the produced endoglucanase, the quantity of extracellular protein and biomass was studied at the conditions of batch cultivation.

Higher activity and differences in biosynthetic dynamics of endoglucanase was observed under the applied pretreatment of the spore inoculums.
