Abstract

The objective of present study was to isolate and screen proteolytic bacteria from poultry waste site at Rasipuram, Namakkal district, Tamilnadu, India. Soil samples were serially diluted and 0.1ml of sample was spreaded on nutrient agar plate at 37o C for 48 hrs. Four bacterial colonies isolated were screened for proteolytic activity by skim milk agar plate assay. The isolate RPB 2 showed maximum zone of hydrolysis (13mm) was selected and identified as Staphylococcus sp by morphological and biochemical test. Various factors influencing the protease production such as incubation time, initial pH, incubation temperature, inoculum level and casein concentration were studied. The results showed that maximum protease enzyme production occurred at incubation time 48hr (34 U/ml), pH 7.0 (42U/ml), 2% inoculum concentration (21.5U/ml), temperature 37o C (51U /ml) and 2% casein concentration (72U/ml).
