Abstract

Rhizopus oligosporus is a safe mold fungus for humans to produce tempeh, a healthy fermented soybean product widely used in the world. In this study, a strain of R. oligosporus was successfully isolated and purified. Additionally, optimal conditions for substrate composition and incubation temperature were identified to promote rapid biomass production, providing a viable microbial starter for Tempeh fermentation.
