Comparative Study for Lipase Production by Using Pseudomonas Aeruginosa and Pseudomonas Fluorescens

Lipases occur widely in nature, but only microbial lipases are commercially significant. The present work focuses on screening and production of extracellular laccases by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas fluorescens. The lipase was assayed by tirbutyrin agar plate method and the activity of the enzyme was further confirmed by titrimetric method. The uses of lipases are enormous and increasing and so there is need to screen and isolate potential species capable of producing large quantities of the enzyme to use for various Industrial applications.
