Abstract

A study was carried out on the application of supercritical fluid to the hydrolysis of boll fibers of cotton (cultivar Tashkent-6 of Gossypium hirsutum L.) by cellulase enzymes from Trichoderma viride, Trichoderma reesei and Aspergillus niger. Conditions of the enzymatic process were optimized. The stabilities of cellulase enzymes were sustained at the pressure of up to 160 attn for 48 hours at 5$0^{\circ}C$ in supercritical carbon dioxide.
