Despite the known importance of the composition of culture media and culture conditions on
Bacillus thuringiensis growth and toxicity, very few reviews are concerned with this subject …

Three industrial by-products were evaluated to produce Bacillus thuringiensis strain GP139:
molasses with soybean flour, nejayote with sucrose, cheese-whey with sucrose and HCT as …

Powders of edible leguminous seeds, greengram (Vigna radiata) or soybean (Glycine max),
were used as the major protein source with different combinations of soluble starch and/or …

In this study, we explored the efficacy of raw potato flour (PF) as supplement to the
conventional LB medium (LB control, designated as M1) for enhancing the concomitant …

This study examined the efficacy of a Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) strain in producing amylase
(EC 3.2. 1.1) as a by-product without affecting its unique ability for producing δ-endotoxin …

The effect of batch and fed-batch fermentation on the cultivation performance of Bacillus
thuringiensis was investigated using a 5-l stirred tank bioreactor. Significantly higher viable …

Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis and B. sphaericus strains 2362 and 1593 were
grown in media based on defatted mustard-seed meal (MSM). The meal contains 40%(w/w) …
