Title:
METHOD FOR CULTURING BACILLUS BACTERIUM, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING USEFUL SUBSTANCE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/066688
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention addresses the problem of providing a culturing method whereby it becomes possible to produce spores of a bacterium belonging to the genus Bacillus with high efficiency. Provided is a method for producing spores of a bacterium belonging to the genus Bacillus, said method being characterized by comprising: culturing the bacterium belonging to the genus Bacillus in a liquid culture medium that contains a sugar or a sugar-derived raw material at a concentration of 50.1 to 100 g/L at the start of the culturing; and culturing the bacterium while supplying a feed culture medium to the liquid culture medium in the middle of the culturing process, wherein the feed culture medium contains a sugar or a sugar-derived raw material and a nitrogenated compound and has a ratio of the amount of carbon atoms to the amount of nitrogen atoms (i.e., a C/N ratio) of 5.5 to 13.5 by weight.
