"Alkaline Lipase Production by Marine Bacillus smithii BTMS 11"

Considering the potential of marine environment present study was designed for the screening and isolation of a potential salt tolerant. alkaline and thennotolerant lipase producing bacteria from the costal belts of South India and consequent development of ideal bioprocess for industrial production, purification characterisation and evaluation of the potential of the lipase enzyme for various industrial applications 1. Screening and isolation of a potential lipase producing bacteria. 2. Optimization of various physicochemical factors in Submerged fennentation for the production of alkaline lipase 3. Purification ofthe lipase enzyme 4. Characterisation of the enzyme 5. Evaluation of the enzyme for various industrial applications
