Fig. 1.

Qualitative assay for detecting extracellular phytase production by Bacillus subtilis KT004404 on phytase-screening medium (PSM) with Na-phytate. Zones of clearance formed around the wells (A) and (B) loaded with bacterial filtrate while well (C) was loaded with control and showed no clearance zone. 

Fig. 2.

Response surface curve for production of phytase as a function of temperature incubation (A), pH-incubation (B), inoculum size-pH (C), temperature-inoculum size (D).

Fig. 3.

One factor plots for the effect of temperature (A) and pH (B) on phytase production.
