ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND
As an alternative to the use of widely investigated agro-industrial residues, this work aimed to promote
the valorization of two selected residues – yellow mombin seed (YS) and jackfruit seed (JS) - due to
RESULTS
YS was applied as a solid state substrate for Penicillium roqueforti ATCC 101110 cultivation (25 °C, Aw
= 0.963, 107 spores g-1 and 142 h) to produce a crude multi-enzymatic extract (CE-YS) containing
activities of CMCase = 31.95 U g-1, xylanase = 56.85 U g-1, exoglucanase = 5.55 U g-1 and FPase =
24.60 U g-1. CE-YS was then applied to six different residues saccharification and the best performance
was obtained with jackfruit seed residue (JS) which was selected for enzymatic saccharification. The
highest productivity of reducing sugars (RS) expressed as glucose (6.26 mg g-1 h-1) was obtained under
the following conditions: 40.7 g L-1 JS, 5 mM MgCl2, 65 °C, 120 rpm, pH 3.0 (citrate buffer 50 mM) and
18 h.

1. INTRODUCTION
The use of agro-industrial residues should be stimulated since these low value compounds with
limited applicability can become a new substrate for valuable products. Thus, the bioconversion of these
(saccharification) in such a way as to turn them into more easily fermentable substrates.1,2 However, it
is important to remember that the execution of saccharification should not be highly complex nor demand
excessive amounts of chemical reagents and energy. For each type of residue, different pre-treatments
are suggested; for rigid residues (higher lignin content) and/or complex composition, techniques such
as higher heat or pressure, light acids and bases may be applied.3,4 The fruits of Spondias mombin L.
(yellow mombin) and Artocarpus heterophyllus (jackfruit) are well appreciated in tropical regions.5,6 Their
seeds, and consequently other seeds, are proposed in this present work to have a potential for different
applications such as fermentation and saccharification, rather than just being discharged.
There are several reports of solid-state fermentations conducted with agro-industrial residues
by filamentous fungi such as Aspergillus7,8, Penicillium9,10 and Rhizopus11,12. During fermentation, the
fungi produce different enzymes that can be recovered as a "multi-enzymatic crude extract" by washing
and/or pressing the fermented substrates.13-15 The application of enzymes in different processes may
become more widespread with the application of unpurified extracts, which contain significant activity of
different abundant agro-industrial residues in the southern and southwestern regions of Bahia (Brazil),
rice straw and yellow mombin seed were evaluated as substrates for cultivation in order to produce
crude multi-enzymatic extracts, which were then applied in the saccharification of other six agro-
industrial residues.14-18 Based on the best performances, the yellow mombin seed was selected for the
production of an extract that was, in turn, applied to saccharification of the jackfruit seed. Finally,
saccharification conditions were evaluated in order to increase the release of reducing sugars by more
than 60 %.
Penicillium roqueforti ATCC 10110 belongs to the Laboratory of Biotransformation and Organic
Biocatalysis (LABIOCAT) of the State University of Santa Cruz (UESC, Ilhéus, Bahia, Brazil) and was
originally acquired from the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (FIOCRUZ, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) and it is
registered under the number 40075 (lot 079840075) at INCQS (Fiocruz, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil). The
activation was performed in Petri dishes (Agar Agar and Potato Dextrose Agar) and incubated at 27.5
°C for seven days in a B.O.D. (SOLAB SL 101, Piracicaba - SP - Brazil).14 The inoculum was prepared
with a suspension of cells from the Petri dishes in 0.1 mL L-1 Tween 80 aqueous solution and counting
was performed in a Neubauer chamber using a binocular microscope (Medilux MDL 150 BAI/BPI) with
hypogaea), rice straw (Oryza sativa L.), yellow mombin seed (Spondias mombin L.), jackfruit seed
(Artocarpus intergrifolia L.), mango seed (Mangifera indica) and coffee straw (Coffea arabica) - were
purchased from producers in the southern and southwestern regions of Bahia (Brazil). After removal of
dirt, the residues were minced with a knife and oven-dried (TECNAL model TE-393/1) at 70 °C for 24 h
and ground in a Willey knife mill (ACB LABOR). The meal from each residue was obtained by sieving
were characterized in triplicate for their cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin content (g kg-1) according to
standard procedures.18
The residues RI and YS were applied individually as substrate for solid-state cultivation of P.
roqueforti ATCC 10110, which conditions were previously defined for RI as 82 h, 32 °C and Aw = 0.984
and for YS as 142 h, 25 °C and Aw = 0.963, both with 10 g of substrate and an inoculum of 107 spores
g-1 dry residue.14,16 Crude multi-enzymatic extracts (CE) were obtained by pressing the fermented
substrate with citrate buffer (pH 4.8 / 50 mM) at a ratio of 5:1 (mL:g), followed by centrifugation at 1,250
The two crude extracts obtained, CE-RI and CE-YS, were applied to saccharification of six agro-
industrial residues: AB, PS, RI, JS, MS and CS. The reaction occurred with the addition of: 20 mL of
CE-RI or CE-YS solution (0.01 L L-1) in citrate buffer (50 mM / pH 4.8), 0.4 g residue and 0.1 mL sodium
azide solution (0.05 g L-1) to prevent microbial contamination.14,18 Saccharification was performed in an
orbital shaker (QUIMIS Q816M20, Diadema, Brazil) at 40 °C and 120 rpm for 24 h and aliquots were
removed at 1, 2, 6, 18 and 24 h intervals. The control was performed by replacing the CE with sodium
citrate buffer (pH 4.8 / 50 mM) in the mixing reaction. The medium was then centrifuged at 1,250 g / 10
min and the supernatant was used to estimate the amount of reducing sugars (RS). For the continuity
of the study, it was chosen YS as a substrate for fungi cultivation and production of a multienzimatic
The effect of the individual addition of certain salts - NaCl, MgCl2, CuSO4, MnSO4 and ZnCOOH
- to the enzymatic saccharification of JS was investigated, in triplicate, under the same conditions
described above. Subsequently, 0.2 mL of 5 mM saline solution was added to the reactive medium,
including the reaction blank.14,18 The concentration of reducing sugars obtained (RSsalt) after 18 h of
activation (ratio > 100%) and it was used in the next step of the study.
The study of the best conditions of enzymatic saccharification of JS by CE-YS was carried out
with the statistical tool of experimental design.19 The effects of combinations of different factor levels,
namely orbital agitation (A = 75 - 225 rpm), temperature (T = 35 - 65 ºC), pH (pH = 3.0 - 9.0), JS
concentration (JS = 5.0 - 45.0 g L-1) and activating salt (MgCl2) concentration (Mg = 1.0 - 9.0 mM), were
investigated on the reducing sugars response obtained per gram of JS (RS, mg g-1) after 18 h of reaction.
For this, a 25-1 Fractional Factorial Desing (FF) matrix was applied and the Effects Analysis was
performed with the help of the statistical software Protimiza Experimental Design (https://experimental-
design.protimiza.com.br/) with 95 % of confidence (α = 0.05). According to the results, the conditions for
Next, a new matrix was applied, a 22 Central Composite Rotatable Design (CCRD) for further
analysis of the new levels of factors: A = 75 - 150 rpm and JS = 25 - 75 g L-1; the response RS was
determined after 18 h of reaction. The regression coefficient analysis was performed and the term
statistically not significant at 90 % of confidence (α = 0.10) was removed; therefore, the analysis of
variance (ANOVA) of the reduced quadratic model was performed.19 Finally, the best experimental
conditions were defined as JS = 40.7 g L-1; T = 65 °C, pH = 3.0, Mg = 5.0 mM, A = 120 rpm and t = 18
One unit of an enzymatic activity (U) was defined as the amount of enzyme required to release
1 µmol of reducing sugar (RS) release from a given substrate per minute. The dinitro-salicylic acid (DNS)
methodology was used for RS determination; the reaction occurred with 0.5 mL of the solution or crude
extract with 0.5 mL of DNS reagent, boiled for 5 min, then 4.0 mL of distilled water was added, and

Enzyme activities (U mL-1) were calculated according to Equation 1 from the values of absorbance
obtained after the DNS reaction (abs), the slope of the DNS calibration curve made with glucose [a =
0.680 μmol abs mL-1, R2 = 0.99], the enzymatic reaction time (t, min) and the dilution factors of the DNS

Exoglucanase activity was determined at 70 °C and 10 min, using a 10 g L-1 Avicel® solution in Tris-HCl

The two crude multienzyme extracts, CE-YS and CE-RI, obtained respectively, from the
fermentation of yellow mombin seed meal and rice straw meal, by P. roqueforti ATCC 10110, resulted
in the following enzymatic activity profiles (CMCase, xylanase, exoglucanase and FPase): for CE-YS,
6.39 Ucmc mL-1, 11.37 Uxyl mL-1, 1.11 Uexo mL-1 and 4.92 Ufpa mL-1; and for CE-RI, 6.89 Ucmc mL-1, 2.89

The saccharification performance of six different agro-industrial residues - AB, PS, RI, JS, MS
and CS - for both multi-enzyme crude extracts (CE-YS and CE-RI) was evaluated over a period of 24
h. With 6 h of saccharification with CE-RI the best RS values were around 7 – 8 mg g-1 with the residues
AB, JS and MS and, after 24 h, these values increased only to 8 – 10 mg g-1; the other residues
presented the worst RS values (< 3 mg g-1). Considering the saccharification with CE-YS, the two best
results were obtained with JS and AB which presented, at 6 h, RS values more than two times higher
than with CE-RI and after 24 h these values reached around 70 - 80 mg g-1, while for the other residues,
only about 10.0 mg g-1 was obtained. Regarding the yield of reducing sugars, JS saccharification by CE-
YS for 18 h was the best result obtained (3.83 mg g-1 h-1); therefore, this extract and residue were
Considering that the best results were obtained with AB and JS, for both extracts, the analysis
of lignocellulosic content demonstrated in Table 1 (considering the variability observed between the
fruits sampled) indicates that these residues had the highest amount of hemicellulose. As mentioned
previously, xylanase activity in CE-YS was higher than in CE-RI, and since this enzyme is responsible
for xylan degradation (which is one of the main components of hemicellulose) this could be suggested
for the best performance of CE-YS in these two residues. However, the RI residue had the third highest
hemicellulose content among the analyzed residues (Table 1) but it was not sufficiently saccharified by
both extracts at any time evaluated. The differences in composition of each residue, which is intrinsic to
each plant species,21,22 and the differences of the enzymes produced from different substrates may

et al.,24 while investigating eight agro-industrial residues for solid-state cultivation of a white rot fungus,
obtained different profiles for the enzymes of interest, for example, the highest CMCase activity (~18 U
g-1) was obtained with wheat meal, while the highest FPase activity (~5 U g-1) was obtained with
sugarcane bagasse.
Many enzymes may require25 or have their catalytic properties enhanced26,27 in the presence of
certain ions. Thus, it was observed the following ratios (RSsalt/RSo, %): Na+ = 91.70 ± 2.33 %; Mg2+ =
146.43 ± 2.24 %; Cu2+ = 110.37 ± 3.92 %; Mn2+ = 103.45 ± 1.06 % e Zn+ = 137.90 ± 2.24 %. As noted,
the addition of 5 mM of MgCl2 (and the consequent presence of the ion Mg2+) resulted in the largest
increase (~ 46 %) in RS values in relation to the medium without the addition of salt, however, it is not
possible to affirm that the presence of Mg2+ acted as a cofactor of enzymatic activity.
way, but certain ions such as Mg2+ may inhibit this unproductive adsorption.28 According to this present
work, the second-best result was obtained in the presence of Zn+ (~ 38 %), while with Cu2+, Mn2+ and
Na+, the effects were less expressive and varied (positively and negatively) around 10 %. Thus, the
addition of the salt MgCl2 was selected for the next step of study of the synthesis conditions.
Considering another previous work with an extract from P. roqueforti ATCC 10110 also
cultivated in YS,16 it was identified that the addition of 2 mM of MnSO4 was able to specifically elevate
xylanase activity by about 40 % of its initial value, while the addition of the same amount of the salt
MgCl2 resulted in a 16 % reduction in the activity of this enzyme. When the effect of the addition of 10
mM MgCl2 on corncob saccharification was investigated18, it was observed that the RS concentration
increased by 86 %. This indicates that, in isolation, the effect of certain ions may vary on each enzymatic
activity analyzed, but since the extract is used in its crude (unpurified) form, it is more interesting to
Table 2 shows the RS values obtained, in this first step of analysis, after 18 h of JS
saccharification by CE-YS. Among the RS values obtained, it can be observed (Table 2) that
experiments 2, 6 and 9 presented the lowest performance (< 10.0 mg g-1). Moreover, these experiments
had the highest level of agitation (225 rpm) besides the smallest amount of saccharification residue (5
g L-1). The highest RS value (> 100 mg g-1) was obtained with experiment 11 (Tab. 1) but the central
points (experiments 17, 18 and 19) also resulted in a close RS value (93.33 ± 0.88 mg g-1).
The Analysis of Effects (Table 2) revealed that the statistically significant (p < 0.05) factors with
positive effects were JS and Mg, which means that changing from the lowest level to the highest levels,
the average RS response is increased. The negative effect of A (Tab. 2) indicates an excessive agitation
can be detrimental to saccharification, probably because it interferes with the contact between enzyme
and substrate. Additionally, the curvature analysis (Tab. 2) indicated that the central conditions were
As the factors T and pH were not statistically significant in the analyzed ranges (Table 2), it was
decided to set T at 65 ºC (especially due to technical equipment limitations) and pH at 3.0. The choice
could have been made as a function of the lower temperature (35 °C) aiming at lower energy expenditure
or a pH closer to neutrality; however, the choice of values was made based on the performance of
experiment 11, which was the highest RS, and the fact that pH has a negative effect, even though it is
not significant (Table 2). It has been reported that a crude extract produced by Inonotus obliquus
(cultivated in solid state in wheat meal supplemented with a mineral solution), presented better activities
(CMCase, FPase and β-glycosidase) at pH of 3.0 to 4.5 and a range of temperature of 40 - 60 °C, noting
that, above 70 °C, CMCase and FPase activities were significantly reduced.32 These observations are
Regarding the addition of the salt MgCl2, the choice for the 5 mM concentration (central
condition) was preferred based on the results previously discussed, but the lower concentration (1 mM)
could have also been chosen to reduce reagent expenditures. Thus, only A and JS factors were selected
JS value (75 g L-1) were considered in the investigation, however, lower agitation and higher residue
Table 3 presents the results of this step of the study and shows that the highest RS value
obtained (119.35 mg g-1) occurred under the conditions of experiment 26, which compared to experiment
11 (Table 2), took place at higher agitation and lower residue concentration and resulted in a 16.30 %
increase in RS. The central points (experiments 28 - 30) resulted in the second highest RS value (110.50
The regression coefficient analysis (Table 3) revealed that only the linear interaction term
between the factors agitation and residue concentration [(A)·(JSM)] was not statistically significant. The
removal of this term from the model and its inclusion in the residues resulted in an increase in the
2
coefficients of determination (𝑅𝑅 2 ) and of adjusted determination (𝑅𝑅𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎𝑎 ) values from 0.9074 and 0.8150,
respectively, to 0.9075 and 0.8457 and it was considered a valid decision. The ANOVA (data not shown),
performed with the reduced model, resulted the following: for the Regression, Fcal = 14.7 (where Ftab =
4.53 < Fcal) and p = 0.0030 and for the Lack of Adjustment, Fcal = 190.5 (where Ftab = 19.25 <Fcal) and p
= 0.0052. Thus, the Regression was not statistically significant at 95 % of confidence but the F-value
and the Lack of Adjustment was statistically significant for both, the F-value and the p-value. Figure 1
presents the experimental and predicted values and shows a clearer view of the deviations between
these values.
Although not approved by the statistical analysis, the reduced quadratic model obtained was
used in order to select the best levels of A and JS; thus, the maximum (theoretical) point were calculated
(data not shown) where the first derivative equals zero. The maximum concentration of RS predicted by
the model was 115.79 mg g-1 for the conditions A = 119.91 rpm and JS = 40.91 g L-1. For practical
reasons, these values were adjusted to A = 120 rpm and JS = 40.7 g L-1 and the mean experimental RS
theoretical value provided by the model (115.78 mg g-1) considering the new coded A and JS values,
was less than 3 %. This could be an argument in favor of the approval of the obtained mathematical
model; however, the decision was maintained to not approve the model.
Since the model to be fitted to a data series is not approved by ANOVA and/or experimental
validation, the defined conditions that lead to a satisfactory response should be referred to as “best
conditions” rather than “optimal conditions”. Thus, the best conditions for saccharification were defined
as JS = 40.7 g L-1; T = 65 °C, pH = 3.0, Mg = 5.0 mM, A = 120 rpm and t = 18 h; the equivalent productivity
of RS was 6.26 mg g-1 h-1. Compared to experiment 11 (Table 2), this value represents a 9.82 % increase
in yield and compared to the first saccharification presented at the beginning of this work, this value
Considering other fungi and agro-industrial residues, Zhang and Sang29, for example, obtained
a higher yield of reducing sugars (23.08 mg g-1 h-1 with 24 h) with a crude extract produced by Penicillium
chrysogenum QML-2 applied to the saccharification of pre-hydrolyzed corncob. In this case, solid-state
cultivation was performed on a more nutritionally complex substrate – a 1:1 (w:w) mixture of corn straw
and wheat straw supplemented with ammonium sulfate and yeast extract – than YS, resulting in a
different enzymatic composition, such as xylanase = 19,613.25 U g-1, endoglucanase = 195.13 U g-1
and FPase = 41.87 U g-1. Also according to these authors, saccharification was performed in two steps,
one of which was thermo-chemical with 10 g L-1 NaOH and autoclaving (120 °C) for 1 h, followed by the
enzymatic step that was performed with 20 g L-1 of the pre-hydrolyzed residue at 50 °C and pH 4.8 with
gentle stirring (value not reported) and for 24 h, resulting in a greater amount of released RS. In another
example29, the saccharification of rice straw by a crude extract containing 132.51 ± 3.27 U mL-1 of
xylanase (produced by the fungus Thermomyces lanuginosus VAPS-24 cultivated in rice straw
supplemented with peptone) presented a yield of reducing sugars of 5.07 mg g-1 when pre-treated with
H2O2 and 1.08 mg g-1 without pre-treatment. In this particular case, it is worth to mention that it was
though, the yields were lower than the one reported in this present work.
residue has been widely applied, but in some situations, it may not be feasible.29,30 In this present work
it is proposed the direct use of YM and JS without any pre-treatment; only the addition of MgCl2 was
suggested. Other researchers, argue that the results of saccharification performed by non-enzymatic
emphasize that the combination of techniques is always valid when trying to propose the use of residues
The crude extract of P. roqueforti ATCC 101110 (also cultivated in YS) was previously applied
to the saccharification of sugarcane bagasse (without pre-treatment) with about half the residue
concentration (22 g L-1), a similar temperature (62 °C), a different salt (10 mM MnSO4), a higher pH
(4.8), the same agitation (120 rpm) and a much shorter reaction time (4 h).26 Under these conditions,
these researchers obtained better saccharification performances (RS > 660 mg g-1), which is possibly a
reflection of the type of residue and reinforces the potential of this multi-enzymatic crude extract. Another
crude extract (from Inonotus obliquus) resulted in lower equivalent productivities (2.6 - 2.7 mg g-1 h-1)
than the results obtained in this study, probably due to the longer reaction time (48 h) and the type of
CONCLUSIONS
Agro-industrial residues can (and should) be applied satisfactorily in the production of different
bioproducts since this practice does not endanger food production. These residues can be successfully
employed as a substrate for microbiological cultivation due to their complex chemical compositions
which stimulate the production of different enzymes. These obtained enzymes are an important
biocatalyst for the most varied applications, such as the production of reducing sugars that can be
directed, for example, for bioethanol production. The use of residues should be stimulated on small
wastes. It is crucial to reduce the impacts caused by our industrial activities no matter in which scale.
