Abstract

The accumulation of pomelo peels (Citrus grandis) as the agro-industrial residues after the fruit processing and manufacturing should be maximally exploited for the microbial bioconversion of the detrimental wastes into a value-added by product such as enzymes. Pomelo peels are authenticated as rich in pectin, acting as the main inducer for pectinase enzyme production by microorganism through solid substrate fermentation system (SSF). Penimbunan kulit limau bali (Citrus grandis) sebagai sisa industri tani setelah pemprosesan buah-buahan sewajarnya dieksploitasi sepenuhnya dengan bantuan mikroorganisma untuk menghasilkan produk lain yang mempunyai nilai komersil seperti enzim. Kulit limau bali telah dibuktikan mengandungi pektin pada kadar yang tinggi dan berperanan sebagai penggalak untuk penghasilan pektinase oleh mikroorganisma melalui kaedah fermentasi substrat pepejal (SSF).
