Abstract:
Amylase can be produced by several microbes such as Aspergillus sp. LBKURCC304
through a submerged fermentation process. This study aims to optimize the
environmental conditions for the growth of Aspergillus sp. LBKURCC304 in produced
amylase enzymes. The results of this study showed that the maximum amylase enzyme
production by Aspergillus sp. was obtained at 40ºC and agitation rate of 50 rpm with an
amylase enzyme activity of 0.4777±0.0085 U/mL and specific activity of 1.0599±
0.0086 U/mL mg.
