Study on Optimization of Fermentation Condition for Nitrilase-Producer <i>Escherichia Coli BL21 (DE3)/pET-Nit</i>

Abstract

The paper concentrated on the optimization of the recombinant strain BL21 (DE3)-PE7-Nit. The component of culture medium and the culture conditions were optimized. The optimized medium was: yeast extract 10 g/l, L-glutamate sodium 8 g/l, MgSO4.7H2O 0.7 g/l, Isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside 0.3 mmol/L, potassium hydrogen phosphate 0.5 g / L, phosphate Potassium 0.5 g / L and the culture condition was: initial pH 7.0, inoculum 2%. The result showed that the activity of nitrilase prepared with these conditions increased by 130.37 % through optimization.
