Cellulase Production by Trichoderma viride on Feedlot Waste

H L Griffin et al. Appl Microbiol. 1974 Jun.

Abstract

Feedlot waste contains essentially all the necessary nutrients for batch fermentation with the fungus Trichoderma viride. The organism utilizes two-thirds of the carbohydrate in feedlot waste while elaborating cellulase in quantities comparable to commercial preparations. Essentially odor-free, the fermented waste contains all of the original nitrogen but has 24% less organic matter.
