چکیده
Microbial enzymes are often more useful than enzymes derived from plants or animals because of are more stable than their corresponding plant and animal enzymes and their production is more convenient and safer (Wiseman, 1987). Only about 2% of the world’s microorganisms have been tested as enzyme sources. Microbial proteases are degradative enzymes, which catalyze the total hydrolysis of proteins (Raju et al., 1994; Haq et al., 2006). Proteolytic enzymes are ubiquitous in occurrence, being found in all living organisms, and are essential for cell growth and differentiation. The extracellular proteases are commercial value and find multiple applications in various industrial sectors. Although there are many microbial sources available for producing proteases, only a few are recognized as commercial producers (Gupta et al., 2004). Of these, strains of Bacillus sp. dominate the industrial International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 6 Number 6 (2017) pp. 853-860 Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com
