Effect of pH and agitation on growth of bacillus subtilis

The effect of initial pH of medium (6.0,6.5 and 7.2) and agitation (100,200 and 300 rpm) on growth of oxygen sensitive culture of Bacillus subtilis were studied using shake flask cultures. Two type of media used were complex medium (CM) and well defined medium (WDM3). The effect of both parameters a...
