Response surface methodology was applied for the optimization of the selected operational variables (corn flour, initial moisture content, and cultivation time) for DPP IV activity as the response. The optimal parameters of DPP IV activity for the independent variables, namely the amount of corn flour (% w/w), initial moisture content (% w/w), and cultivation time (days), were evaluated to be , , and days, respectively, using Aspergillus awamori T116. The response for these results was also shown to be in very close agreement with the experimental data. Key words: Dipeptidyl peptidase IV, Aspergillus, Penicillium, Rhizopus, solid state fermentation Introduction Studies on the dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV; EC ) (CD26) enzyme have focused especially on human health. Besides being a useful marker for early diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy and tumor burden, DPP IV has roles in many biological processes including pancreatic cancer and rheumatoid arthritis (1-9). In addition to mammalian cells, DPP IV was isolated from insect and microbial cells (10). Mentlein mentioned the interaction of the DPP IV (CD26) enzyme with mammalian regulatory peptides in detail, and also mentioned that DPP IV had an important role not only in the regulation of the endocrine system, immune system, and gastrointestinal system, but also in the regulation of the nervous system (11). In humans, DPP IV was .
