Abstract/Description: | Azolla is a freshwater fern and decomposed very fast in absence of water, hence an attempt was made to prepare value added products such as Azolla pellet for livestock feed and microbial growth medium from Azolla extracts to preserve its value. Azolla pellet (15 g each) was prepared to contain a considerable amount of protein, antioxidants, major, and minor nutrients. Azolla-based microbial growth medium was developed and compared with existing commercial media. Our result indicated that Azolla medium was 32.7% and 62.7% cheaper compared to nutrient agar and Jensen agar media, respectively. Growth of bacteria, fungi and their functional traits were at par on Azolla medium compared to commercial media. |
