S. Padmavathi et al., APPLICATION OF THE EXTRACELLULAR PROTEASES FROM THE CULTURE FILTRATE OF STREPTOMYCES SPP G(157) IN BATING, Journal of the Society of Leather Technologists and Chemists, 79(3), 1995, pp. 88-90
Laboratory scale experiments were carried out to test the efficiency o
f the extracellular proteases from the culture filtrate of Streptomyce
s spp. G(157) as a bate. A comparative study was carried out with the
commercially available bate. Visual assessment, and microscopic analys
is revealed that the extracellular proteases from the culture filtrate
of Streptomyces spp. G(157) were more efficient than the commercially
available bate. Physical testing data indicated that it did not have
any adverse effect on the properties of the leather.
