Open publisher page 8 citations

Abstract

Anaerobic microorganisms of Antarctic were investigated for production of extracellular lipases. Of 137 anaerobic strains studied, 49 (35.7%) strains showed lipolytic activity. Amongst the strains studied, 64 were psychrophiles (29 strict, 35 facultative) and 73 psychrotrophs (31 strict, 42 facultative). Of lipase producing psychrophiles, 9 (31.0%) were strict and 11 (31.4%) facultative anaerobes, whereas amongst lipase producing psychrotrophs, 13 (41.9%) were strict and 16 (38.0%) facultative anaerobes.
