ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides for the use in the production of cellulolytic and xylanolytic enzymes, particularly xylanase and cellulase, of the microorganism Thermoascus aurantiacus in a culture medium containing at least one of a cellulose or hemicellulose substrate whereby to produce thermostable enzymes, particularly cellulase and xylanase.
