Abstract :

Soil is the motherland of microorganisms; numbers of microorganism are found in soil which includes fungi; yeast, algae and bacteria. Each organism is able to produce an enzyme to survive in environment. Some organisms produce amylase, protease, lipase, nuclease etc. These organisms produce an enzyme broadly of two types extracellular and intracellular enzymes. The substrate for DNase producing bacteria in soil is decaying plant cells, animal cells and microbial cells. Deoxyribonucleases have great application in industrial as well as therapeutic fields. Our attempt was to isolate an efficient deoxyribonuclease producing bacteria from soil as soil is the richest source of microorganisms. Of the factors affecting the production of deoxyribonuclease, aeration is one of them. We have estimated the amount of oxygen required for maximum deoxyribonuclease production.
