Due to the distinct shortages of current fibrinolytic drugs, new fibrinolytic agents warrant investigation. In this study, 8 fibrinolytic enzyme-producing strains were isolated from Douchi--a traditional Chinese food, and strain XY-1 which produced the largest amount of the enzyme was chosen for the following experiments. The enzyme produced by strain XY-1 was named Douchi fibrinolytic enzyme (DFE). We optimized the liquid culture medium of strain XY-1 for enzyme production using Plackett-Burman and Box-Behnken design. The predicted maximal DFE yield was 19.78 FU/mL with 11.4 g/L peptone, 0.5 g/L magnesium sulfate and 1 g/L sodium chloride. How- ever, we acquired maximal production of 21.33 FU/mL in actual experiments, equal to 107.84% of the theoretical value, and the yield had been increased by 79.55% as compared to the yield of un-optimized culture. It was demonstrated that the combined use of Plackett-Burman design and response surface methodology in fermentation optimization can effectively and rapidly increase DFE production.展开更多
