Each experiment was repeated three times, and all of the data were expressed as means ± standard deviations. X1, X2, X3, X4, X5, X6, X7, X8, X9, and X10 represent peptone (g/L), corn powder (g/L), starch (g/L), soybean meal (g/L), KH2PO4 (g/L), (NH4)2SO4 (g/L), incubation temperature (°C), initial pH, incubation time (h), and inoculum size (%).
