Chicken Feathers As An Alternative Substrate For Extracellular Keratinase Production Using Microsporum Fulvum Ibrl Sd3 By Solid Substrate Fermentation

In nature, chicken feathers were abundantly generated from poultry industry and become severe environmental problems. The capabilities of microbial degradation and bioconversion of chicken feathers were directed to the reason for this study. The present study used the keratinaceous waste as a substr...
