Optimization of Enterocin production from probiotic Enterococcus faecium using Taguchi experimental designDina Maany1, Amr El-Waseif2, Eslam Abd- elwahed21Chemistry of Natural and Microbial products Department, Pharmaceutical and Drug Industries Research Institute, National Research Centre, Dokki, Giza 12622, Egypt.2Botany And Microbiology Dept., Faculty Of Science (boys), Al-azhar University, Cairo, Egypt INTRODUCTION: Enterocin is a significant broad spectrum peptide antibiotic produced by Enterococcus faecium.Enterocin production by Enterococcus faecium was investigated by Taguchi experimental design. The Taguchi models were used for the reason of saving time and effort required for optimizing the different conditions affecting its production. They were applied to optimize the conditions for enterocin production by the least number of experiments and the least amount of required materials. Corresponding Author: Amr El-Waseif, Egypt |
