Abstract: | Curvularia lunata could neither grow nor produce rifamycin oxidase in synthetic media without peptone and yeast extract. Mycelia grown on complex media were tested for the ability to produce rifamycin oxidase in synthetic media. The optimum concentrations of peptone and yeast extract were in the range of 7.5–10 g/L. Five percent inoculum size was found to be optimum for good growth and enzyme production. Addition of metal ions to the cultivation medium increased the enzyme activity. |
