"Isolation and Characterization of Detergent Compatible Alkaline Protease Producing Bacillus Subtilis APO-1"

Screening of bacterial isolates for protease production with special reference to molecular identification of highly producer strains

“…Bacillus Subtilis APO1 is capable of producing alkaline protease enzyme at all pH range 7.0-11.5, however it has the potential to produce alkaline protease for potential commercial usage as a component of detergent formulations [24]. It was shown that Bacillus tequilensis (JQ904626) produces an extracellular protease that is solvent-and detergent-tolerant as well as stable in the presence of surfactants, commercial detergents, and bleach-oxidant (H2O2).…”
