Screening of potential strains and co-substrate for production of cellulase enzyme using sewage treatment plant sludge as major substrate

Potential fungal strains belonging to the genera of Penicillium, Trichoderma and Aspergillus were isolated from various waste sources and tested for their capability to produce cellulase enzyme using sewage treatment plant (STP) sludge as a major substrate. Out of 35 strains, five strains were ident...
