In this paper, we have attempted optimization of production of enzyme carboxymethylcellulase or endoglucanase from the bacterium Bacillus amyloliquefaciens SS35. Optimization has been carried out in two stages using statistical experimental design, viz. medium optimization and optimization of fermentation parameters. For medium optimization, Plackett-Burman design followed by central composite ...

To optimize the medium for high zofimarin production, sucrose maltose, glucose, tryptone and peptone were used in an orthogonal array design experiment, where the highest value of zofimarin produced was 25.6 μg/mL. This value was about 3 times higher than that obtained with Czapek yeast extract (CzYE) culture medium. A study with Plackett-Burman design showed that sucrose, maltose, glucose and ...

In this research, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) is used to investigate the effect of four controllable input variables namely: discharge current, pulse duration, pulse off time and applied voltage Surface Roughness (SR) of on Electrical Discharge Machined surface. To study the proposed second-order polynomial model for SR, a Central Composite Design (CCD) is used to estimation the model co...

In order to improve the structural stiffness of gravure cell structure in solid printing process and realize a lightweight design, multi-objective optimization design method was proposed optimize parameters direct laser engraving structure. this paper, based on characteristics analysis contact force, ANSYS parametric language (APDL) used conduct finite element microstructure regular hexagonal c...

Pectinases (EC 3.2.1.15) are a class of enzymes that catalyze the depolymerization or de-esterification reactions degrade pectic substances. In present study, we have isolated Aspergillus niger strain from soil samples, in India and evaluated pectinase production. The highest producing A. was further optimized with various agricultural wastes. Plackett-Burman design (PBD) Central composite ‘(CC...

The aim of this investigation was to prepare, characterize and optimize the aceclofenac proniosomes using central composite design and carry out stability studies. Three independent variables selected were molar ratio of drug to lipid (X1), surfactant loading (X2) and volume of hydration (X3). Based on central composite design, 16 batches of proniosomes were prepared by slurry method and evalua...

In this paper, the statistical analyses are presented to study the thermal efficiency and power output of gas turbine (GT) power plants. For analyzing gas turbine operation and performance, a novel approach is developed utilizing the response surface methodology (RSM) which is based on the central composite design (CCD) method. An attempt is made to study the effect of some operational factors ...

Arachidonic acid is an essential fatty acid in human nutrition. In the present study, production of arachidonicacid by Mortierella alpina CBS 754.68 was evaluated in submerged fermentation. The fermentation variableswere selected in accordance with the Plackett-Burman (PB) design and further optimized via response surface methodology (RSM). Five significant variables, namely glucose...
