Overview

Observational analysis identified lipase-producing fungi in palm oil mill effluent soils, suggesting local enzyme production potential.

Key Points

  • Five fungal isolates showed lipase production, particularly Aspergillus sp with a clearance zone of 19 mm.
  • Soil samples from Emohua and Isiokpo exhibited varying physicochemical properties, such as pH and electrical conductivity.
  • The isolated fungal genera included Aspergillus sp, Rhizopus sp, and Penicillium sp, indicating diverse microbial presence.
  • The findings suggest that these lipase-producing fungi could be utilized for enzyme production in biotechnological industries.
