Lipase-Secreting Bacillus Species in an Oil-Contaminated Habitat: Promising Strains to Alleviate Oil Pollution

Figure 7

Measurement of zone of clearance of the lipolytic versus protease activity of strains 3, 7, 8, and 10. Serially diluted bacterial isolates grown overnight at 37°C were plated onto gelatin agar plate for proteolytic activity and phenol red agar for lipolytic activity.
