α-Amylase Production on Low-Cost Substrates by Naxibacter sp. Isolated from Mauritian Soils

Aadil Ahmad Aullybux & Daneshwar Puchooa · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2013

Alpha amylase is an important enzyme used in different industries, which degrades starch into smaller disaccharides. Extracellular α-amylase producing organisms were isolated from soil samples from Mauritius and identified by standard biochemical tests. In this study, the high yi...

Production of Halophilic α-Amylase by Immobilized Cells of Moderately Halophilic Bacillus sp. Strain TSCVKK

Kanthi K. Kiran, Podili Koteswaraiah & T. S. Chandra · Microbiology Research Journal International · 2012

Aims: To investigate the effect of cell immobilization on amylase production by the moderately halophilic bacterium, Bacillus sp. strain TSCVKK and to compare the properties of the amylase produced under immobilized conditions with the enzyme produced by the free cells. Study Des...
