ISOLATION OF BACTERIUM PRODUCING XYLANASE FROM WORKERS OF TERMITE Reticulitermes santonensis AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE XYLANASE
Xylanase is an enzyme hydrolyzing xylan. The enzyme belongs to two main types: B-xylosidase and endoxylanase widely used in industrial applications such as biobleaching pulp, food functional production, food processing, feed nutrition improvement, and lignocellulosic material biodegradation. Xylan-a...
