Production and Biochemical Characterization of a High Maltotetraose (G4) Producing Amylase from Pseudomonas stutzeri AS22

Figure 1

Amylolytic (a) and proteolytic (b) activities of the isolated strain AS22. The amylolytic and proteolytic activities of the strain AS22 were evaluated by puncture inoculation of the strain inside nutrient agar medium containing soluble starch (1% w/v) (a) and casein (b), respectively. After incubation at 37°C for 24 h, to detect the amylolytic activity, the plates were flooded with iodine solution at room temperature.
