Acid Pullulanase from Bacillus polymyxa MIR-23

Within the frame of a screening program aimed at the isolation of amylolytic sporeformers, one strain with high amylolytic activity designated MIR-23 was selected. The microbial characterization was carried out by morphological and biochemical tests and, by means of statistical treatment, was identi...

The microbial characterization was carried out by morphological and biochemical tests and, by means of statistical treatment, was identified as Bacillus polymyxa. The organism could grow in acidic conditions (pH 5.0) on a starch medium and produce α-amylase, pullulanase, and α-glucosidase.

These properties would allow its use in the saccharification processes in the starch industries. © 1993 The Humana Press Inc. Fil:Castro, G.R. Universidad de Buenos Aires.
