Abstract

The performance of potato starch, maltose and dextrin of the constituent of the medium was suited to the best environment condition than lactose medium for penicillin production. These experiments were reported that the lactose is replaced by other carbohydrates and fat compound. This study was done exclusively on shake flask method. Glucose, sucrose and glycerol were unable to supply the essential requirement for the mold. Because they are exhausted at rapid rate, such medium would given a low yield of penicillin production when they are used to completely replace the lactose in medium. Potato starch, maltose and dextrin were able to supply the essential requirement for the mold, because they are exhausted at slow rate. Thus the maximum yield of penicillin can be obtained when they are used to completely replace the lactose in medium. The present investigation was observed that potato starch, maltose and dextrin were suited to the best environment condition for penicillin production.
