3. Introduction
• We get the significant factors for maximum production
of Tannase using Plackett-Burman method .
• Tannase has great commercial significance in the feed,
drink and medical industries.
• Tannase is an enzyme catalyzing the hydrolysis of the
tannic ( C76H52O46 ) , that is present in many different
parts of plants, to produce glucose and gallic acid
(C6H2(OH)3COOH) or Tri-Hydroxy-Benzoic Acid.

5. Plackett –Burman MethodPlackett –Burman Method
• Developed in 1946 by statisticians Robin L. Plackett &
J.P. Burman.
• It is an efficient screening method to identify the
active factors using as few experimental runs as
possible.
• With an 8-Run Plackett-Burman design, we can look at
up to 7 factors; with a 12-Run design, up to 11 factors
and with a 16-Run design up to 15 factors.

6. When to Use Plackett-Burman Design ?
It is particularly helpful to use Plackett-Burman design:
•In screening of process parameters
•In two-level multi-factor experiments
•When there are more than four factors (if there are between
two to four variables, a full factorial can be performed)
•To economically detect large main effects
For N = 12, 20, 24, 28 and 36 (where N = the number of
experiments)

7. Analysis of Experiment Results
• Once the experiment is run and the samples measured, the
data from the experiment are used to calculate the effects
and determine the statistical significance of those effects
by two way ANOVA(analysis of variance) for different
factors and different levels.
• There is no way to know if the effects are due to changes
made in the factor levels or due to common cause
variation in the process unless their statistical significance
is tested.

8. Production of Tannase
• Submerged fermentation: It is the process of producing
enzyme(tannase) with the help of micro-organism.
Micro-organism(bacteria erwinia) breakdown the
nutrients and release desired amount of enzyme in the
solution.
• Micro-organism seeded in liquid(tannic acid ,other
sources of tannic acid,H2O,KCLand NaNO3 ) for some
time(20-24 hours for tannase) to produce tannase enzyme.
• Enzyme activity – moles of substrate converted per unit
time (unit per ml).

9. Process parameters for tannase productionProcess parameters for tannase production
• PH - 2-8
• Temperature - 30-35° c
• Incubation time - 20-24 hours
• Metal ions - k++
and Na++
• Nitrogen and carbon sources

11. Uses of TannaseUses of Tannase
• Bioconversion of tannic acid by enzyme tannase to
produce gallic acid(Tri-hydroxy benzoic acid).
• Gallic acid is used for preparation of :
- antibacterial drugs
- vitamin supplements
- fruit juice
- coffee flavoured soft drink
• Gallic acid has anti-cancer properties(prevent cellular
mutations) and anti-fungal properties.
