This research aimed to maximize production of Menaquinone-7(MK-7) by solid state fermentation process. Menaquinone-7 (MK-7) was produced by solid state fermentation process of Glycine max and Phaseolus vulgaris in presence of a co-cultured by Bacillus subtilis. Three separate nutritional parameters were screened for each experiment for the production of MK-7 using Plackett–Burman experimental design. Parameters were optimized by Box–Behnken design of response surface methodology for the production of menaquinone-7 (MK-7). In present study, 16.39 μg MK-7 produced per gram of Glycine max in optimised formula in the medium contains sorbitol 51.22g kg־1, urea- 3.40g kg־1 and MnCl2-0.20g kg־1. With Phaseolus vulgaris 31.35 μg of MK-7 produced per gram of the substrate in a optimised media containing glycerol-54.05g kg־1, urea-3.40g kg־1 and soybean extract-15.00g kg־1.}, number={21}, journal={European Scientific Journal, ESJ}, author={Ahmad, Md Faruque and Ashraf, Syed Aamir and Azad, ZR Azaz Ahmad and Panda, Bibhu Prasad}, year={2013}, month={Jul.} }
