Optimization of Fungal Enzyme Production byTrichoderma harzianumKUC1716 through Surfactant-Induced Morphological Changes

Abstract: The morphological optimization of Trichoderma harzianum was carried out using several surfactants to achieve increased cellulase production. Addition of the surfactants to the culture medium successfully modified the fungal morphology from an aggregated form to a dispersed form. Optimization of the fungal morphology increased cellulase activity up to 177%. The morphologically optimized conditions enhanced the accessibility of the fungus to substrates and thus promoted cellulase production.

“…Notably, our results are in agreement with previous studies reporting that the pellet form of filamentous fungi is conducive to producing a higher product production [ 35 , 36 ]. Moreover, we confirmed that the addition of 1.5% TEOA into the seed culture medium is conducive to efficient organic acid fermentation by R. oryzae .…”

“…The present findings showed that the three exogenous additives evaluated in this study had different effects on mycelium morphology of ABSC, which may affect biomass and EPS production. Similarly, Lee et al [39] evaluated the addition of surfactant to Trichoderma harzianum fermentation culture medium and observed that Fig. 6 The number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs; log 2 fold change) of ABSC grown in the absence or presence of LRM anthocyanins Fig.…”

“…This can be explained by the fact that there was prolonged contact with fungal mycelia and enzymatic process with time and as such more reaction with the increased volume of enzymes in the medium (Echeveria, et al, 2020). The fungus T. harzianum, has more enzymes that can effectively degrade crude oil than A. flavus (Lee, et al, 2017). T. harzianum also colonized the contaminated substrates faster than A. flavus as shown by mycelial growth inhibition (Table 4).…”
