This protocol utilizes wheat bran in a rotary solid-state fermentation system to enhance enzyme production. The substrate, supplemented with inducers such as chitin, supports fungal growth under controlled conditions. Results demonstrate enzyme yields 4-6 times higher compared to submerged fermentation, showcasing the method's adaptability and effectiveness for diverse biotechnological applications.
