Constitutive High Level Expression of an Endoxylanase Gene from the Newly Isolated Bacillus subtilis AQ1 in Escherichia coli
Table 2
Comparison of the activity at 55°C pH 7 of the supernatant from the fermentation broth after 24 hours of cultivation at 37°C in the different medium content of AQ1, DB104, and recombinant at the same OD OR cell number per ml. The given values in activity assays are the means of triplicates independent experiment (± the standard deviation).
