Prospect of microbiological extraction of quality from jute cuttings [of Bangladesh]
1980
Barua, J. (Bangladesh Jute Research Inst., Dacca)
Jute is a rainy season crop. Highland which is suitable for the cultivation of Olitorius are comparatively scanty. Capsularis are popular as early maturing crop. The study describes the retting process of jute. It also indicates that retting can be effected either through microorganisms, chemicals or enzymes. Retting can be done exclusively by the action of chemicals using dilute acids or alkalies i.e. without the intervention of microorganisms in order to overcome the slowness inherent in microbiological process, but it has not been tried in large scale trials. Chemical retting has not made much progress in England. Bacterial enzymes and a fungal enzyme named Hiparol have been isolated in India and Bangladesh.
