	%X In this study, the possibility of using potato as a
substrate for glutamic acid production by Brevibacterium linens
was investigated. For preparation of fermentation medium, potato
was hydrolyzed by hydrochloridric acid. The medium contained
potato hydrolysate, tween 80, mineral solution, glucose, and
potassium hydrogen phosphate. The initial pH of the medium was
adjusted to 7-7.5. For achieving the optimum time with maximum
yield, the beakers containing the medium and the inoculums were
incubated in a rotary water bath flask shaker for one to five days.
Thin layer choromatography was used for quantitative and
qualitative assay of the glutamic acid produced. The results
revealed that as fermentation time increased, pH of the
fermentation medium significantly decreased (P
