Abstract: L-asparginase (L-aspargine aminohydrolase), the enzyme which converts L-aspargine to L-aspartic acid and ammonia, has been used as a chemotherapeutic agent which has anti carcinogenic potential. The study on the localization of any enzyme plays a vital role in the development of bioprocess. A wide range of microorganisms such as filamentous fungi; bacteria have proved to be beneficial sources of L-asparginase enzyme. Bacterial isolates has been screened for the production of L-asparginase and parameters of fermentation process were evaluated for the production using E.coli for submerged fermentation(SMF) and Aspergilus niger for solid state fermentation (SSF). Comparative study has been done for the SSF and SMF for identifying the qualitative and quantitative analysis of the produced enzyme. Key words: L-asparginase, E.coli, Aspergilus niger, SSF, SMF. INTRODUCTION: Enzyme is a biocatalyst which accelerates biological reactions. There are various sources of enzymes and it includes microorganisms, higher plants and animals. Plant enzymes are papain, proteases, amylases and soyabean lopoxygenase. Animal enzymes includes lipase, tripsin etc. Microbial enzymes are classified into two categories namely extracellular and intracellular. Extracellular enzymes are secreted out the cell. They help in establishment in host tissue or decomposition of organic substrates, e.g. cellulase. Intracellular enzymes remain within the cell. These are difficult to extract and they have high economic value, e.g.invertase, asparginase etc. Intracellular enzymes obtained by breaking the cells by means of a homogenizer or a bead mill and extracting them through biochemical process. The enzyme L-asparginase is one of the most industrially important enzymes. The discovery of L-asparaginase (L-asparaginase aminohydrolase), a medicinal agent for the treatment of malignant tumors, was made in 1922. This enzyme is also a choice for acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphosarcoma and in many other clinical experiments relating to tumors therapy in combination with chemotherapy. The therapeutic potential of this enzyme is well established, as it has remarkably induced remission in most patients suffering from acute lymphoblastic leukemia. With the development of its new functions, a great demand for L-asparaginase is expected in the coming years. Guinea pig serum contained a high activity of L-asparaginase. L-asparginase production using microbial systems has attracted considerable attention, owing to cost effective and eco friendly nature. A wide range of microbes has proved beneficial sources for this enzyme. L-asparginase production from bacterial origin can cause ISSN: 2231-5381 hypersensitivity in the long term use leads to allergic reactions. L-asparginase production using microorganism such as filamentous fungi yeast and bacteria have proved to be beneficial source. Lasparginase is produced throughout the world by submerged fermentation technique. This technique has many disadvantages such as low concentration production and consequent handling reduction and disposal of large volumes of water during downstream processing. Therefore the SMF technique is a cost intensive and highly problematic and poorly understood unit operation. SSF is very effective technique as the yield of product is many times higher than that of SMF and it also offers many advantages including resistance to contamination, ease of product extraction and simpler methods for treating the fermented residue. The objective of this study was to isolate L-asparaginase from fungi by solid-state fermentation using soybean oil extracts as a substrate and submerged fermentations and partial purification, and characterization of the crude enzyme extract. Solid state fermentation generally defined as the growth of microorganisms on (moist) solid material in absence or near absence of free water. SSF involves the growth of microorganism on moist solid particles in situation in which the spaces between the particles contain a continuous gas phase and minimum of visible water. Although droplets of water may be present between the particles and there may thin films of water at particle surface. The interparticle water phase is discontinuous and most of the interparticle phase is filled by the gas phase. The majority of water in the system is absorbed within the moist solid particles SSF offers numerous advantages over submerged fermentation, this include high volume productivity, relatively higher concentration http://www.ijettjournal.org Page 595 International Conference on Global Trends in Engineering, Technology and Management (ICGTETM-2016) of products, less effluent generation and simple fermentation equipment etc. MATERIALS AND METHOD: Chemicals, Media and Reagents used are Glucose (C6H12O6), Luria Bertani broth (LB), Tryptone, Yeast Extract, Sodium Chloride (NaCl), Eosin Methylene Blue (EMB), McConkey’s Agar, Lactose Broth, Crystal Violet, Gram’s Iodine, Saffranin , Peptone, Kovac’s reagent, Nutrient Agar, Nutrient Broth, Sodium Carbonate (Na2Co3), Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), Copper Sulphate (CuSO4), Sodium Tartarate, Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA), Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate (KH2PO4), LAsparginase, Magnesium sulphate (MgSO4), Calcium Chloride (CaCl2), Agar agar, Phenol Reagent (Folin And Ciocalteu’s), Tris HCl (Hydroxymethyl methylamine), Trichloroacetic Acid, Nessler’s Reagent, Sodium dihydrogen Phosphate (NaH2PO4), Sodium hydrogen Phosphate (NaHPO4), Sodium Cholride (NaCl), Potassium Chloride (KCl), Dipotassium Hydrogen phosphate (K2HPO4), Ferrous sulphate(FeSO4), Citric Acid, Hydrochloric Acid (HCl), Manganese sulphate (MnSO4), Zinc Sulphate (ZnSO4), Czapek Dox, Ethanol.
