โœฆ Synopsis


A sporulating, aerobic Bacillus sp., isolated from Chimanimani hot springs, Zimbabwe, produced endoglucanase when cultured on medium with initial pH between 5.0 and 9.0 and at 30 to 60ยฐC. Optimal production of endoglucanase was at pH 6.0. The enzyme was constitutively produced when the organism was cultured on starch, cellobiose, carboxymethylcellulose, sucrose, glucose, galactose, Avicel, lactose, mannose or maltose.

Two Bacillus strains capable of producing endo-p-1,4-glucanase enzyme were isolated from Zimbabwean hot springs. Strain HR68 produced the enzyme when cultured using both carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and simple sugars as carbon source while strain CH43 produced the enzyme on CMC only. The optimum con
