“…A class of advantageous mixed microbial cultures known as effective microorganisms (EM) have numerous environmental and agricultural applications as biocontrol agent . Bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, insects, and other organisms promote biodegradation process (Pruska et al, 2022). Keratinolytic fungi such as Trichoderma, Fusarium, Meiothermus, Chrysosporium, Aspergillus, Microsporum, Nocardiopsis, Candida albicans, Aphanoascus and Trichophyton have better keratinolytic property and few researches have been carried out to explore their keratinolytic potential (Li, 2019).…”
