Isolation, Identification and Cellulase Production by Bacillus Brevis from the Acacia Forest Soil

Isolation and Identification of an Alkaline Protease Producing Bacillus from Soil

Isolation, Identification and Partial Optimization of Novel Xylanolytic Bacterial Isolates from Bhilai-Durg Region, Chhattisgarh, India

Background: Plant biomass and agricultural waste products disposal is a serious problem in agriculture based countries. These wastes, usually rich in xylan can be satisfactorily converted to industrially important and useful products by efficient biotechnological application of potent xylanase producing bacteria which generally have high temperature and pH optima....

Isolation and Identification of Streptomyces ramulosus from Soil and Determination of Antimicrobial Property of its Pigment

Background and objective: Pigment production by microorganisms is important due to more rapid growth, higher efficiency, easier extraction, and antimicrobial effects compared to other methods. The aim of the present study is to isolate and identify antibiotic pigment-producing actinomycetes from the soil of the Persian Gulf and to evaluate the antibiotic activity of their pigments in the second...

Optimization of the Cellulase Free Xylanase Production by Immobilized Bacillus Pumilus

Background: The extracellular xylanase secreted by microorganisms is a hydrolytic enzyme, which arbitrarily cleaves the β-1, 4 backbone of the polysaccharide xylan; an enzyme used in the food processing, bio-pulping and bio-bleaching. The commercial production of the xylanase is limited because of a higher cost involvement, which can be overcome by the cost-effective production...

Isolation, Molecular Identification and Evaluation of Antifungal Effects of the Bacilli Isolated from Rhizospheric Soil of Gorgan Region against Tricophyton Mentagrophytes

Abstract Background and objective: Soil bacteria, particularly Bacillus genus have the potential of producing a range of bioactive substances with antimicrobial and antifungal properties. They have the ability to produce hundreds of active and effective biologic compound against microorganisms. Therefore, it seems to be a proper candidate in the biocontrol of fungal pathogenesis. Material & Met...
