Rapeseed cake as raw material <strong>for</strong> fungal<br />
fermentation<br />
Rapeseed (Brassica napus), is a bright yellow flowering member <strong>of</strong> the family<br />
Brassicaceae (mustard or cabbage family).<br />
Rapeseed is grown <strong>for</strong> the <strong>production</strong> <strong>of</strong> vegetable oil <strong>for</strong> human consumption, and<br />
biodiesel; leading producers include the European Union, Canada, the United<br />
States, Australia, China and India.<br />
The seeds <strong>of</strong> the rapeseed provides a quantity <strong>of</strong> oil ranging from 40 to 53% <strong>of</strong> dry<br />
matter.<br />
Processing <strong>of</strong> rapeseed <strong>for</strong> oil <strong>production</strong> provides rapeseed cake as a by-product.<br />
Agro-<strong>industrial</strong> residues are generally considered the best substrates <strong>for</strong> the bioprocesses,<br />
and use <strong>for</strong> fungal fermentation <strong>for</strong> the <strong>production</strong> <strong>of</strong> enzymes is no<br />
exception to that.<br />
