Production of cellulolytic enzymes via solid state fermentation of spent mushroom substrate by Trichoderma asperellum UPM 1

Spent mushroom substrate (SMS) is a by-product generated after mushroom harvesting from the commercial mushroom cultivation industry. SMS had lost a significant fraction of their mass (approximately 35-50% depending on their nature) due to metabolic reactions, mushroom production and water evaporati...
