Summary
Some nutritional factors that affect lipase yields byRhizopus delemar were studied. Dextrin proved to be the best carbon source when used at 1% level. Yeast extract was the best nitrogen source for lipase production. The presence of a lipidic source in the growth medium, at a level not higher than 2% resulted in higher enzyme production. Tween 80 exerted a positive effect on enzyme production, used in a range that goes from 0.02% to 2.00%.
