"The effect of methyl glucoside sesqui-stearate (MGS) on the production of raw starch degrading enzyme (RSDE) by Aspergillus oryzae F-30 was studied in this paper. The activity of RSDE formed by Aspergillus oryzae F-30 was enhanced dramatically by the addition of MGS to the medium," scientists in Danzhou, People's Republic of China report.

"As a result, with the addition of 1.5 g MGS in 1 L basal medium, RSDE activity and productivity were 107 U mL(-1) and 1.49 U mL(-1) h(-1), 4.3-fold and 7.1-fold greater than the values obtained in the basal medium, respectively. The effect of MGS on the synthesis of RSDE by Aspergillus oryzae F-30 was also studied on a ...
