Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCharacterization and Wash Performance Analysis of Microbial Extracellular Enzymes from East Calcutta Wetland in IndiaRamesh Malathu, Sanhita Chowdhury, Madhusmita Mishra et al.Extracellular protease from a novel bacterial isolate showing maximum similarity of 98.22% with Microbacterium luteolum was obtained from East Calcutta Wetland, India. It showed compatibility with commercial detergents. The enzyme retains more than 60% of its activity between 6.0 to 10.5 pH. The maximum activity is at pH 7.5 with 71% activity at pH 10.0 and 10.5. The protease retained … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,731 accessesView PDF Cite
