Abstract
One of the major constituents of hemicellulose is xylan. Among different natural polymers, xylan can be found more abundantly and is ranked second among them. There are four types of xylans, and the physical conformation and solubility of each are determined by the side chains. The phenomenon of reactions with other components of hemicelluloses can be attributed to their side chains. Xylanase is an enzyme from the hydrolase family that can catalyze the hydrolysis of xylan polysaccharides. Aside from plant and animal sources, the enzyme xylanase is produced from a different microorganism. Some fungi as Trichoderma sp., Aspergillus sp., yeast like Cryptococcus sp., and bacteria such as Streptomyces sp., are very well-known for the production of microbial xylanase. Microbial enzyme production will boost employment and revenue, allowing for the exploration of certain alternate techniques to preserve foreign exchange reserves. Because industrial enzymes are imported with precious foreign exchange, this endeavor can address national demand while simultaneously benefiting industry and the economy. Xylanase has several applications; it is used in the beverage industry, the bakery industry, the paper industry, etc. They can also be used in poultry as food additives.
