Growth and alpha-amylase production characteristics of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain F (ATCC 23350) in batch cultures are examined using glucose or maltose as the carbon source. While the cell growth is rapid when glucose is used as the carbon source, higher cell mass, higher total and specific enzyme activities, and higher enzyme production rates are obtained when maltose is used as the carbon source. The overall specific enzyme activity decreases with an increase in the initial concentration of carbon source. The oxygen requirement and carbon dioxide generation vary linearly with the maximum amount of cell mass produced. For experiments conducted using glucose as the carbon source, the kinetics of cell growth and glucose consumption are described using a special form of the Vavilin equation. For a given amount of initial carbon source, the enzyme synthesis capability is retained by the microorganism, although at a substantially reduced level, under severe oxygen limitation.
