Enrichment strategy to enhance screening for novel cellulose-degrading enzymes from Malaysian palm oil mill effluent by constructing functional DNA metagenomic libraries

Functional metagenomic approach has proven to be powerful tool for identifying novel biocatalysts through high-throughput screening of DNA metagenomic library. Culture enrichment strategies are additional pre-screening methods to provide an attractive means of enhancing the screening hit rate. In...
