Abstract. Indah AWN, Rohmatussolihat, Rahayu WP, Setyoningrum F, Priadi G, Afianti F. 2020. Optimum growth conditions of Lactobacillus brevis LIPI13-2-LAB131 in β-galactosidase enzyme production. Biodiversitas 21: 5403-5407. Deficiency of β-galactosidase enzyme causes lactose to become undigested in gastrointestinal system, therefore the system needs further addition of external β-galactosidase. The sources β-galactosidase enzyme varies from plants, animals, and microorganisms. In industrial applications, microorganisms have become a considered potential source of β-galactosidase. Lactobacillus brevis LIPI13-2-LAB131 had high β-galactosidase enzyme activity, which was 7.93 U/mL. The aim of this research was to optimize the growth condition of L. brevis LIPI13-2-LAB131 in order to produce maximum β-galactosidase enzyme activity. This research consisted of performing optimization processes using design expert 7.0 (DX7) program with response surface methodology (RSM) and partial purification of β-galactosidase enzyme. The results of this research showed that the optimum growth conditions of L. brevis LIPI13-2-LAB131 were in 1.48% lactose level, incubation temperature of 34.91 °C, incubation time of 48.48 hours, and 2.83% inoculum size with desirability value of 0.839. The result of enzyme purification showed that value of β-galactosidase enzyme activity increased up to 22.88 ± 0.29 U/mL with purification yield of 11.65%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
