| description | This research was done to compare the utilization of pineapple peel and banana peel as substrate
for microbial production of ferul ic acid-the precursors of vanillin by Ceratocystis paradoxa under
solid state fermentation (SSF). This study was vital as no others research had reported any
positive production from Ceratocystis paradoxa as this fungus was known as polyphagous wound
parasite causing bJack rot post-harvest disease in pineapple and yet there was no study about solid
state fermentation of Ceratocystis paradoxa previously. Apart from that, this researched also
aimed to investigate the difference between two different type of inocula; spore suspension and
solid mycelium plug used in the fermentation in producing high titre of ferulic acid. From the
result, pineapple peel gives the highest ferulic acid production of 5.3885 mg/g compared to
banana peel which has the maximum production of only 3.9028 mg/g. Two types of inoculum had
no significantly difference since both gives high production of ferulic acid to different substrates.
The culture inoculated with mycelium plug of Ceratocystic paradoxa gives high titre of ferulic
acid to pineapple peel meanwhile spores suspension to banana peel. Lastly, feruloly esterase
activity (FEA) of each culture was also beelTdetermined in this study.
