| Summary: | In this study, some physiological conditions affecting the activity of xylanase enzyme produced from Trichoderma harzianum 1073 D3 were determined. In addition, stabilization of pH and temperature in liquid and semi-solid state cultivation media were investigated. It was concluded that for maximum xylanase activity, incubation at 60°C in an enzyme incubation medium with pH 5 that contained 1 % xylan was appropriate. The stability studies showed that the enzyme was relatively stable in the pH range 3-7 and retained more than 50 % of its original activity after four months.<br>Neste estudo algumas condições que afetam a atividade da enzima xylanase produzida a partir de Trichoderma harzianum 1073 D3 foram determinadas. A estabilização do pH e temperatura em cultivo líquido e semi-sólido foram avaliados. Foi concluído que para o máximo de atividade xylanase foi obtida com 1% de xylano a temperatura de 60ºC e pH 5.0. Estudos de estabilidade demonstraram que a enzima foi relativamente estável na faixa de pH entre 3-7 e retém mais do que 50% de sua atividade original após 4 meses. |
