Abstract

Production of amylase under submerged fermentation Bacillus sp. was investigated using wheat bran, soybean meal and CaCO 3 (WSC) medium. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to evaluate the effect of the main variables, i.e., pH (11.35), temperature (35.16°C) and inoculum size (2.95%) on amylase production by applying a full factorial central composite design (CCD). The mutual interaction between these variables resulted into 4.64 fold increase in amylase activity as compared to the non-optimized environmental factors in the basal medium.
