Screening of Lignocellulolytic Enzyme Activities in Fungal Species and Sequential Solid-State and Submerged Cultivation for the Production of Enzyme Cocktails

Various fungal species can degrade lignocellulolytic materials with their enzyme cocktails composed of cellulolytic and lignolytic enzymes. In this work, seven fungal species (<i>Mucor indicus</i> DSM 2185, <i>Paecilomyces variotii</i> CBS 372.70, <i>Myceliophthora ther...
