Anti-α-Glucosidase Activity by a Protease from Bacillus licheniformis

Immobilization of Alkaline Protease produced from Bacillus Licheniformis PTCC1331 on Calcium Alginate (Its effect on enzymatic activity)

Alkaline Protease enzyme produced from Bacillus Licheniformis PTCC1331 in optimum Condition(Temperature 37 ?C, 150 rpm, PH=10), is immobilized in different concentrations of Sodium Alginate using entrapment method, to increase its thermal resistance in detergents, and its activity is measured thereafter. Maximum enzymatic activity of 46 was obtained in 2%w/v Sodium alginate solution. Investiga...

Production of Extracellular Protease and Determination of Optimal Condition by Bacillus Licheniformis BBRC 100053 (RESEARCH NOTE)

The production of protease by Bacillus licheniformis BBRC 100053 was studied. The most appropriate medium for the growth and protease production is composed of: lactose 1%, yeast extract 0.5%, peptone 0.5%, KH2PO4 0.1%, MgSO4.7H2O 0.02%. Enzyme production corresponded with growth and reached a maximums level (589 U/ml) during the stationary phase at 35°C, pH equivalent to 10 and with 150 rpm af...

Anti-biofilm activity of an exopolysaccharide from a sponge-associated strain of Bacillus licheniformis

BACKGROUND Secondary metabolites ranging from furanone to exo-polysaccharides have been suggested to have anti-biofilm activity in various recent studies. Among these, Escherichia coli group II capsular polysaccharides were shown to inhibit biofilm formation of a wide range of organisms and more recently marine Vibrio sp. were found to secrete complex exopolysaccharides having the potential for...

Two-step purification and partial characterization of an extra cellular α-amylase from Bacillus licheniformis

The aim of this study was production and partial purification of α-amylase enzyme by Bacillus licheniformis. B. Licheniformis was allowed to grow in broth culture for purpose of inducing α-amylase enzyme. Optimal conditions for amylase production by B. Licheniformis are incubation period of 120 h, temperature of 37 °C and pH 7.0. The α-amylase enzyme was purified by ion exchange chromatography ...
