Among all endophytic fungi recovered from the marine soft sponge Aplysina fistularis, 72.2% were able to produce L-asparaginase. Among all obtained isolates, Aspergillus sp. ALAA-2000, the hyperactive producer for the anticancer agent, L-asparaginase, under submerged fermentation (SMF) and solid state fermentation (SSF) of different agriculture wastes was selected for the optimization of extraction process; optimization of physicochemical parameters, which affecting the production of L-asparaginases in SSF and optimization of the purified L-asparaginases parameters. Maximum L-asparaginase activity 23.34 U/ml was recovered from soybean with hot water at 40 °C and 150 rpm for 30 min under SSF and 30.64 U/ml under submerged fermentation using glucose as carbon source and asparagine as nitrogen source. Two types of L-asparaginase (AYA-1 and AYA-2) were pur.. View More»
