Abstract
A process for producing cellulolytic and/or hemicellulolytic enzymes with a strain of microorganism belonging to the family of filamentous fungi. The process includes growing the fungi in an aqueous culture medium, in the presence of at least one carbon-based growth substrate, in a stirred and aerated bioreactor. It also includes the production of enzymes, starting with the aqueous culture medium in the presence of at least one inductive carbon-based substrate and also inducing the production of hydrophobins. Further, at least a portion of the hydrophobins produced in step (b) are reintroduced into the growth step (a).
