Summary: | In this study Response Surface Methodology has been applied to optimize the
physicochemical factors in maximizing the production of protease by Bacillus
licheniformis in a medium fortified with skim latex serum. The results showed
that the production increased approximately a nine fold to the original medium.
The predicted values of the model were in agreement with the experimental
values and validation steps verify its adequacy and accuracy. Thus, this study
presents a holistic approach for the bioconversion of agro-industries waste to
value-added protease enzyme, potentially useful in many industries and thus
minimizing the release of polluted water into the environment by the natural
rubber industries. |
