Four factors, namely, carbon source, nitrogen source, amino acid, and fermentation time, each at four levels, were selected, and an orthogonal array layout of L-16(4(5)) was performed. The model equation obtained was validated experimentally at maximum casein (1%), corn meal (1%), and glutamic acid (0.01%) concentrations with incubation time to 72 h in the presence of 1% inoculum density. Point prediction of the design showed that maximum alpha-amylase production of 503.26 U/ mg was achieved under optimal experimental conditions.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAlpha-AmylaseBacillus Subtilis Rskk96Optimum ConditionTaguchi MethodologyArticle4118493WOS:0002865718000082-s2.0-786513890902122946610.1080/10826068.2010.534333Q2Q4
