Response surface methodology based on central composite design was employed for statistical optimization of medium components for the production of pullulanase by Raoultella planticola DSMZ 4617. The combined effects of three independent variables, i.e., concentrations of sago starch and peptone and initial culture pH were analyzed using a reduced cubic model, which was developed by central composite design in predicting the optimum yield of pullulanase activity. Under these conditions, the model predicted a maximum production of pullulanase (1.94 U/mL) at 6.12 g/L sago starch, 15.34 g/L peptone, and at initial culture pH of 7.23. By applying the statistical design, the pullulanase production was enhanced to about nearly two times higher (1.70 U/mL) as compared with the fermentation using nonoptimized medium (0.95 U/mL). It was observed that the experimental values obtained were in good agreement with the values predicted from the models with relatively small errors between the values.
