Coconut oil cake––a potential raw material for the production of α-amylase

Solid-state fermentation (SSF) was carried out using coconut oil cake (COC) as substrate for the production of α-amylase using a fungal culture of Aspergillus oryzae. Raw COC supported the growth of the culture, resulting in the production of 1372 U/gds α-amylase in 24 h. Process optimization using...
