Abstract

Aspergillus spp. are fungi that are present in nearly all soils and other diverse habitats. These are highly efficient producers of many extracellular enzymes. They are used commercially for production of cellulases, pectinase, amylases, and other enzymes that degrade complex polysaccharides. Microbial enzymes are widely used in food processing. Many new enzymes and enzyme processes act on nearly all types of organic food components as starch, sugars, proteins, fats, fibers, and flavor compounds. The enzymes are also used in poultry feed to increase the digestibility of hemicelluloses from barley or other crops. Their application has a major impact on enzyme technology in general. This chapter provides the properties, production, and applications of Aspergillus enzymes within the food industry.
