Development of Growth Media for Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum, a Poultry Probiotic Candidate
Development of Growth Media for Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum, a Poultry Probiotic Candidate
Bacillus amiloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum is a poultry probiotic candidate due to its ability to produce three importantdigestive enzymes; protease, amylase, and cellulase. In its application, the bacterial isolate needs to be cultivated in massscale, therefore requires a lot of growth medium. Thus, this study aimed at developing low-cost media to replace expensivecommercial growth media for culturing the probiont. Three media (two media developed by using two local sources) and onecommercial LB medium as the control were used to culture B. amiloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum. Growth was measured interms of Optical Density (OD), and total harvested bacterial biomass (mg). The results indicated that there was no significantdifference in OD of the probiont measured at the three media, which indicates that both local source-based media could supportthe growth of the probiont at the same rate as the commercial medium. Furthermore, total biomass of the probiont harvestedfrom palm sugar medium was significantly higher (12.130 mg/mL), compared to either tofu wastewater (10.870 mg/mL),or LB medium (7.800 mg/mL). This result suggests that palm sugar medium was the most suitable medium for culturingB. amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum on a mass scale. However, the quantity and activity of enzyme synthesized by thebacterium cultured in the local source medium should be further investigated.
