Abstract
Needle-punch polyester was shown to be an effective support material for the immobilization of Trichoderma reesei Rut C30. When used as a resident inoculum for a batch process, the immobilized Trichoderma was very stable and resulted in a reduced rate of biomass generation in the bulk liquid phase as compared to cultures inoculated with free mycelium. Fed-batch fermentations with the immobilized Trichoderma produced ca. 80% of the activity of those using free cells; however, the activity was more stable and the crude enzyme broth produced had a greatly reduced biomass concentration.
