Abstract
Activity of alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase (EC 3.2.1.55) ranged between 0 .03 and 1.63 U/ml when Sclerotium rolfsii was grown in a synthetic med ium containing different nitrogen and carbon sources. Agricultural and forest residues such as rice straw, corn cob, groundnut husk, and app le pomace were suitable substrates for enzyme production. Maximum acti vity, 4.2 U/ml, was with pre-treated corn cobs.
