Bioconversion of nitrogen supplemented wheat pollard and bran by filamentous fungi
AbstractWheat pollard and bran were fermented by a selection of filamentous fungi in stationary solid-state culture at 63·5% moisture and 30°C. Results were rated in terms of increases in crude protein (CP) percentages following a 10-day fermentation. Chaetomium virescens gave the highest unsupplemented increase of 100%. A range of concentrations of a variety of nitrogen supplements were assessed, ammonium phosphate (10% w/w) supporting a maximal increase in CP of 170% for a Schizophyllum commune fermentation. The lack of sporulation of S. commune (a basidiomycete) during fermentations was an advantage. Addition of poultry manure (1% w/w) supported a 155% increase for Aspergillus terreus and a 126% increase for Trichoderma reesei, the highest CP% increases for these fungi. Aspergillus terreus gave the most consistently high CP increases. The recycling of poultry manure in feed, via solid substrate fermentations, was shown to be a viable proposition.
