Abstract

SUt:I.:LTIY
Production of ~anylQse froTI the theroophilic
organisms h~s prccticcl cdvnntage in some technological
proceess, since the amylase of thermophilic organisms
has high stability against the high temperatures.
Therefore,the present investi8ntion wns subjected
to study the production of aramylase by thermophilic
organisTis ~~d to investigate factors affecting its
production ~~d functions.
Results obtained could be su~erized as follows:
in pure c-_•lturcs fro:;_ differen’~ so’lrces such as
compost, rhizosplcere, stc’ule wannure, dcugh, and air.

NRRL und Bacillus stearotheroophilus-22 DSM were
the most active organisms in ruaylase production by
submerged culture.
4- The most active isolates were studied with respect
to their morphological, cultural and physimlogical
charact~ristics and identified as ~· stearothermophilus
according to Bergey’s manuel of detern~tive
bact erial ogy.
5- Studying the effect of different media by the most
active isolates on ~nnylnse production, it was
found that medium No. 4 Welker und Campbell

in B. ste~rothernophilus-c 5 it wcs foULd that
~-amylase of B. stearotheroophilus-c5 is a true
~xtracellular enzyoe.
11- Enzyme precipitation was carried out using different
conce~trationsof ethanol, acetone, isoprop~~ol and
=oniun sulfate. Results showed that 50% =oniu::J

gave the higl:est specific activity in enzyoe

14- Regarding the specific action of ~uoylase of
B. stenrothermophilus-c5 , it was found that potato
starch was the best substrate as conpared with
rice starch and corn starch.
15- Gomparing the purified theruophilic ~amylase

results showed that:-
