This study reports the production, purification and application of cellulases from Trichoderma viride under still culture liquid state fermentation technique using microcrystalline cellulose and cheap and easily available waste material, as growth supported substrate. Trichoderma viride was cultured in fermentation medium of cellulose under some previously optimized growth conditions. Cellulase was purified in comparison to crude enzyme extract using ammonium sulfate precipitation, dialysis and ion exchange column chromatography. The purified cellulase was compatible with four local detergent...
