The bio-materials of four marine mangrove medicinal plants viz., Aegiceras Corniculatum (AGC), Excoecariaagallocha (EA), Rhizophoramucronata (RM) and Xylocarpusgranatum (XG) are extracted with methanol and hexane. These extracts are submitted to the antibacterial activity towards the strains:Bacillus puvuilis, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus coagulans, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus licheniformis,...

Eight Bacillus strains isolated from Sonoran Desert soil were shown to belong to a previously unidentified species, for which the name Bacillus sonorensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain L87-10T (= NRRL B-23154T). On the basis of phenotypic and genetic data, B. sonorensis is most closely related to Bacillus licheniformis. B. sonorensis can be distinguished from B. licheniformis ...

conclusions in this study, we isolated b. licheniformis producing an organic solvent-stable protease from oil-contaminated soil. the protease was stable and active in various organic solvents. by purification, the protease could be used as a biocatalyst for organic solvent-based enzymatic synthesis. results according to 16srdna sequencing, strain isa9 was identified as a new strain of bacillus ...

Thirty-five Bacillus isolates were obtained from traditionally fermented locust bean ( ̈iru ̈) in Akure, South-western part of Nigeria. Twelve of the bacillus isolates were identified as Bacillus licheniformis, twentyone as Bacillus subtilis and two as Bacillus cereus according to physiological and biochemical properties. The B. licheniformis isolates were selected for this study due to scarcity ...

BACKGROUND Some strains of Bacillus licheniformis have been improved by target-directed screening as well as by classical genetic manipulation and used in commercial thermostable alpha-amylase and alkaline protease production for over 40 years. Further improvements in production of these enzymes are desirable. RESULTS A new strain of B. licheniformis CBBD302 carrying a recombinant plasmid pHY...

A strain of Bacillus licheniformis, established in the digestive tract of gnotobiotic mice, inhibited the subsequent establishment of a Clostridium perfringens strain ingested by the animals. This inhibitory effect depended on the in vivo production by B. licheniformis of an antibiotic substance having a number of the characteristics of bacitracin. If C. perfringens was the first to become esta...

a bacterial culture was isolated from oil-contaminated soil based on its ability to metabolize the quinoline as the sole source of nitrogen. in this research bacillus licheniformis strain was identified based on the result of 16s rrna analysis. optimized conditions were obtained with full factorial experimental design method using design expert software at temperature: 32oc, agitation speed: 20...

Diversity among biosurfactant producing Bacillus spp. from diverse habitats was studied among 77 isolates. Cluster analysis based on phenotypic characteristics using unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic averages (UPGMAs) method was performed. Bacillus isolates possessing high surface tension activity and five reference strains were subjected to amplified 16S rDNA restriction analysis (A...
