achieved
maximum xylanase production by supplementing the medium
with sodium nitrate as nitrogen source with 5% maize
straw as a substrate as a carbon source. Qinnghe et al. (2004)
reported that supplementation of peptone to the enzyme synthesis was significantly stimulated by the addition
of wheat bran and tween-80 to the medium. fermentation medium enhanced the xylanase production by
P. ostreatus. Kalogeris et al. (2003) stated that addition of 0.04 g
of ammoniumsulfate per gram of substrate favored the better
enzyme production. Kuhad, Manchanda, & Singh (1998) reported
that wheat bran and peptone were found best for
highest xylanase production among various tested agricultural
residues and inorganic/organic nitrogen sources. Xylan
and NaNO3 were best carbon and nitrogen sources for
maximum xylanase production C. sativus Cs5 strain in submerged
