| a newly isolated organic solvent tolerant staphylococcus saprophyticus m36 produced organic solvent-stable lipase. | thirty-eight high lipase activity strains were isolated from soil, seawater, and brassica napus. among them, a novel organic solvent tolerant bacterium (strain m36) was isolated from the seawater in jiangsu, china. isolate m36 was able to grow at high concentration of benzene or toluene up to 40% (vol/vol), and later identified as staphylococcus saprophyticus by biochemical test and 16s ribosomal dna sequence. no work on staphylococcus producing lipase with organic solvent tolerance has been rep ... | 2006 | 17089221 |
