Today’s environment is rapidly changing, where we can experience
constant technological advancement backed by innovation playing major catalyst in this race. SSF appears to possess several biotechnological advantages, though at present mostly on a laboratory scale, such as higher fermentation productivity, higher end-concentration of products, higher product stability, lower catabolic repression, cultivation of micro-organisms specialized for
thewater-insoluble substrates or mixed cultivation of various fungi,
and last but not least, lower demand on sterility due to the low
water activity used in SSF [3]. Viniegra-González et al. [11] have
attempted to develop a general approach for the comparison of
productivity of enzymes employing SSF and SmF and have tried
to explain the reason for higher production in SSF. Higher biomass,
high enzyme production and lower protein breakdown, contributes
to the better production in SSF
