MEDIA FORMULATION Medium formulation is an essential stage in the design of fermentation process. Most fermentation media require liquid media‚ although some solid-substrate fermentations are also operated. Fermentation media must satisfy all the nutritional requirements of the microorganisms and fulfill the technical objectives of the process (1). There are several stages where media are required in a fermentation process; inoculum (starter culture)‚ propagation steps‚ pilot-scale fermentations

CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION Natural rubber is produced by over 2000 plants species and its main constituent is poly (cis-I‚4-isoprene).a highly unsaturated hydrocarbon. Since 1914 there have been efforts to investigate microbial rubber degradation: However‚ only recently have the first proteins involved in this process have been identified and characterized and have the corresponding genes cloned. Analysis of the degradation product of natural rubber and synthetic rubbers isolated from various
