Abstract

The present work was aimed to investigate the impact of the solid substrates mixture on Fructosyltransferases (FTase) and Fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) production. An augmented simplex lattice design was used to optimize a three component mixture for FTase production. Among selected substrates corn cobs has highest impact on FTase production followed by wheat bran and rice bran. All two substrates and three substrate combinations showed the highest enzyme production than their individual levels. Among the tested various models quadratic model was found to be the best suitable model to explain mixture design. Corncobs, wheat bran and rice bran in a ratio of approximately 45:29:26 is best suitable for the FTase production by isolated Aspergillus awamori GHRTS. This study signifies mixture design could be effective utilize for selection of best combination of multi substrate for improved production of high value products under solid state fermentation.
