Summary
An optimal medium for lipolytic productivity of selected bacterial strains contains soybean meal as the nitrogen source and soluble starch, or sucrose or maltose as a carbon source. The temperature of 42°C and pH 8.6 were in general the most suitable for lipolytic productivity but 22°C and pH 8.6 were the optimum temperature for the production of lipase byPs. fluorescens.
