The results of fractional factorial design showed that age and size of inoculum and shaking speed were the key factors affecting β glucanase production and the cultivation time span to reach the highest β glucanase activity. The optimal cultural conditions for β glucanase production obtained with CCD were as follows: inoculum age and size (16 h, 3.82%(v/v)), shaking speed 210 r/min, charge quantity of 30 mL in 250 mL flask and initial pH 7.0, cultured at 37℃ for 50 h.

The amount of β glucanase, α amylase and neutral protease produced by B subtilis ZJF 1A5 was associated partially with cell growth.
