Xenorhabdus stockiaePB09 bacterium has been shown to exhibit antifungal activity against several plant pathogens. To improve its efficacy, the optimization of the nutritional components in culture media was performed. The medium components that have significant effects on antifungal activity ofX. stockiaePB09 were initially identified using a fractional factorial design. Response surface methodology and central composite design were then used to create a model for optimizing the levels of carbon, nitrogen, and mineral sources that maximize antifungal activity ofX. stockiaePB09. After that, the suitable carbon, nitrogen, and mineral sources were selected and adjusted by the second-order polynomial regression model, which predicted that 98.62% of antifungal activity could be obtained when the medium contained sucrose, yeast extract, NaCl, and K2HPO4at 3.24, 23.71, 5.46, and 2.73 g/L, respectively. Laboratory verification of this recipe resulted in the antifungal activity at 97.95% in the shake flask experiment after 48-hour cultivation, which was significantly 27.22% higher than that obtained by using the TSB medium. In addition,X. stockiaePB09 cultured in the verified recipe by using 5 L fermenter could effectively inhibit the mycelial growth ofPhytophthorasp.,Rhizoctonia solani,Pythiumsp., andFusarium oxysporum. This study demonstrated that the RSM and CCD were shown to be valuable tools for optimizing the culture medium that maximize the antifungal activity ofX. stockiaePB09.

β-Glucosidase is the key enzyme for the utilization of lignocellulose.But the commercial β-glucosidase can’t be produced. This paper focuses on the study of the β-glucosidase fermentation process.The fermentation medium components for β-glucosidase production from Aspergil lusniger was optimized by response surface methodology (RSM). Firstly, the three of the most important influence factors yeast extract, MnSO4•H2O and MgSO4•7H2O was obtained from Plackett-Burman design screening. Then the path of steepest ascent experiment was adopted to approach the optimal region of the medium composition. Lastly, the optimal concentration and mutual effect of three factors were predicted by RSM. The results showed that the best medium composition was Malt extract 18g/L, Yeast extract 3.22g/L, KH2PO4 3g/L, MnSO4•H2O 0.58mM, Tween-80 0.5mL/L and MgSO4•7H2O 0.23g/L. Under these fermentation conditions, the activity of β-glucosidase was up to 7.33IU/mL with increasing 23.2% than before.

Background/Objectives: Zeaxanthin is a xanthophyll carotenoid revered for its role in the prevention of age related macular degeneration. The study evaluated the zeaxanthin accumulation of the marine Cyanophycean alga Trichodesmium thiebautii (NIOT 152). A sequential statistical technique was applied to optimize the Artificial Sea Water nutrient medium (ASN-III) components for enhancing the zeaxanthin accumulation in T. thiebautii. Methods: A two-level statistical approach involving Plackett-Burman (PB) design to screen the most important nutrients influencing the zeaxanthin accumulation followed by Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed. The results of PB design revealed sodium nitrate, disodium EDTA, magnesium sulphate and sodium carbonate as the crucial medium components for increasing zeaxanthin accumulation. Further, RSM was employed to study the interaction between these factors and identified an optimum concentration of the ingredients for higher zeaxanthin production. Findings: The optimized medium components resulted in 2.33 fold increase in zeaxanthin accumulation (4.3 ± 1.29 mg L-1) as compared to ASN III medium (1.84 ± 0.12 mg L-1). Novelty: There are only few studies on laboratory cultured Trichodesmium and only very few reports are available regarding pigment production from Trichodesmium sp. The present study successfully demonstrated the statistical optimization of ASN III medium to improve zeaxanthin accumulation by Trichodesmium thiebautii. Keywords: ASN III medium; zeaxanthin; Trichodesmium thiebautii; Plackett-Burman; response surface methodology REFERENCE

The medicinal mushroom Inonotus obliquus has been a folk remedy for a long time in East-European and Asian countries. It has been ascribed to a number of triterpenoids that show various biological activities. In this study, the response surface methodology was employed to optimise the medium composition for triterpenoids production by I. obliquus in shake flask culture. A fractional factorial design was used to evaluate the effects of different components in the medium. Glucose, peptone, yeast powder, and CaCl2 were important factors significantly affecting I. obliquus triterpenoids production. These selected variables were subsequently optimised using steepest ascent method, a central composite design, and response surface methodology. The optimal medium composition was (% w/v): glucose, 5.92; peptone, 0.23; CaCl2, 0.048; yeast powder, 0.12; KH2PO4, 0.1; MgSO4, 0.02. Under optimal conditions, triterpenoids production by I. obliquus reached 5.51%, representing an increase of 1.4-fold compared with that using the basal medium (3.98%).

This study was aimed to optimise lactose, inulin and yeast extract concentration and also culture pH for maximising the growth of a probiotic bacterium,Bifidobacterium animalissubsp.lactisin apple juice and to assess the effects of these factors by using response surface methodology. A second-order central composite design was applied to evaluate the effects of these independent variables on growth of the microorganism. A polynomial regression model with cubic and quadratic terms was used for analysis of the experimental data. It was found that the effects involving inulin, yeast extract and pH on growth of the bacterium were significant, and the strongest effect was given by the yeast extract concentration. Estimated optimum conditions of the factors on the bacterial growth are as follows: lactose concentration=9·5 g/l; inulin concentration=38·5 mg/l; yeast extract concentration=9·6 g/l and initial pH=6·2.

Antioxidants play a significant role in oxidative stress management and health protection. One variable at a time response surface methodology (RSM) was used to formulate different composition of media to increase the antioxidant property of selected microorganism (Escherichia coli MTCC no. 40). 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assays was used to measure antioxidant activity of selected microorganism. The reduction potentiality of DPPH radical was determined by the DPPH% antioxidant or scavenging activity of the solution. In the present study, we have measured antioxidant activity of both intracellular and extracellular metabolites in dry and wet extracellular metabolites in supernatant respectively. In DPPH assay, extracellular metabolites showed better antioxidant potential in comparison with the reference compound. The comparison was based on antioxidant activity in different responses (number 1-16) for both dry and wet biomass. According to the results maximum DPPH % antioxidant or scavenging activity was showed by response 9 (wet biomass) and response 6 (dry biomass) that is 24.8447 and 35.0142 respectively in comparison to standard (4.4636). Hence, response surface methodology is used in bioprocess technology to optimize the medium components which is the primary step involved to enhance the antioxidant activity of particular microorganism.

Five effective factors such as H2SO4 concentrations, reaction time, reaction temperature and stir velocity were tested by using 25 fractional factorial design criterion and three effective factors H2SO4 concentrations, reaction time and reaction temperature showed significant effect(P2SO4 concentrations of 0.29mol/l, reaction time of 90 min and reaction temperature of 50°C. Three runs of additional confirmation experiments were conducted. The mixture magnesium leaching value was 58.20%.
