Enhanced Production and Characterization of a Solvent Stable Amylase from Solvent Tolerant Bacillus tequilensis RG-01: Thermostable and Surfactant Resistant

Figure 11

Effect of different concentration of metal ions (NaCl, CaCl2, and MgSO4) on amylase production. Test flasks contained different concentrations (5 mM to 45 mM) of metal ions (NaCl, CaCl2, and MgSO4) in the medium. The flasks were inoculated with culture and were incubated at initial pH 7.0, 55°C for 24 h. For enzyme activity, the reaction was assayed by standard assay method. Error bars presented mean values of ±standard deviation of triplicates of three independent experiments.
