Abstract

See full text

Described is a process for screening of microorganisms for the production of amylolytic enzymes. Microorganisms capable of amylolytic enzyme synthesis and growing on the surface of a solid medium are detected by identifying a zone of hydrolyzed starch surrounding each microorganism. The process is particularly useful for the detection of .alpha.-amylase activity in strains of Bacillus licheniformis as it employs a selection step under anaerobic conditions prior to the detection of the enzyme.
