Abstract
The production of L-asparaginase by two mutants of Serratia marcescens
grown on 14 different media was studied. The enzyme content increased from
trace levels to 2ยท4 international units per ml when the organisms were grown in
glycerol-peptone yeast extract medium. Glucose was the best carbon source under
aerobic conditions. The enzyme content increased when L-asparagine was present
in the growth medium.
