AB  - The untanned proteinaceous tannery solid waste, the animal fleshing (ANFL), was 
      used as substrate in the treatment process (hydrolysis and fermentation) 
      involving Synergistes sp. The nonionic surfactant (Tween 80) was evaluated for 
      its ability to influence on microbial growth and enzyme activity in the 
      hydrolysis and fermentation of ANFL. The addition of Tween 80 in the process 
      significantly increased the activities of hydrolytic and fermentative enzymes 
      like protease (338-360 Um l(-1)) and deaminase (187-206 Um l(-1)) compared to 
      that of control (protease 195-220 Um l(-1) and deaminase 70-83 Um l(-1)). The 
      total viable bacterial count was increased more than twofold, compared to the 
      control in the presence of 0.15% Tween 80. The ANFL fermentation and formation of 
      other metabolites were evidenced by Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectroscopy 
      (GC-MS), Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy ((1)H NMR) and Fourier 
      transform infra red spectroscopy (FT-IR). The breakdown of fibrillar proteins in 
      ANFL was confirmed by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the transmission 
      electron microscopy (TEM).
