RT Journal Article SR Electronic(1) A1 Khan, A.W.YR 1980 T1 Cellulolytic Enzyme System of Acetivibrio cellulolyticus, a Newly Isolated Anaerobe JF Microbiology, VO 121 IS 2 SP 499 OP 502 DO https://doi.org/10.1099/00221287-121-2-499 PB Microbiology Society, SN 1465-2080, AB Crude enzyme preparations from Acetivibrio cellulolyticus converted ball-milled pulp, cotton batting, filter and tissue paper, a microcrystalline cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, cellobiose and xylan to reducing sugars. The preparations showed maximum activity between pH 5 and 6 and at a temperature between 37 and 50 °C, depending on the substrate used. The enzyme activity was fairly stable at 2 °C for 4 weeks. The saccharifying ability of the preparation was comparable to that of commercially available cellulase preparations from Aspergillus niger and Trichoderma viride. , UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/micro/10.1099/00221287-121-2-499
