Isolation and screening of Streptomyces sp. Al-Dhabi-49 from the environment of Saudi Arabia with concomitant production of lipase and protease in submerged fermentation.

ABSTRACT: In this study, Streptomyces sp. Al-Dhabi-49 was isolated from the soil sample of Saudi Arabian environment for the simultaneous production of lipase and protease in submerged fermentation. The process parameters were optimized to enhance enzymes production. The production of protease and lipase was found to be maximum after 5 days of incubation (139.2 ± 2.1 U/ml, 253 ± 4.4 U/ml). Proteolytic enzyme increases with the increase in pH up to 9.0 (147.2 ± 3.6 U/ml) and enzyme production depleted significantly at higher pH values. In the case of lipase, production was maximum in the culture medium containing pH 8.0 (166 ± 1.3 U/ml). The maximum production of protease was observed at 40 °C (174 ± 12.1 U/ml) by Streptomyces sp. Lipase activity was found to be optimum at the range of temperatures (
