Application

Corn steep solids are an inexpensive nutritional supplement for a wide variety of industrial microbiological processes. For example, this material was used in production of cellulase from a fungal endophyte, as an adjunct to bioethanol production.
Corn steep solids are soluble and may be used as a nitrogen source in several medium and cell culture conditions. This can give rise to biomasses that are rich in proteins and poor in acidic polysaccharides

Several fungal endophytes of the Egyptian marine sponge Latrunculia corticata were isolated, including strains Trichoderma sp. Merv6, Penicillium sp. Merv2 and Aspergillus sp. Merv70. These fungi exhibited high cellulase activity using different lignocellulosic substrates in solid state fermentations (SSF). By

The effects of medium composition and culture conditions on the production of (6)G-fructofuranosidase with value-added astaxanthin were investigated to reduce the capital cost of neo-fructooligosaccharides (neo-FOS) production by Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous. The sucrose and corn steep liquor (CSL) were found to
