Bioscouring of Cotton using Lipase from Marine Bacteria Bacillus sonorensis

Abstract: Bioscouring refers to the enzymatic removal of impurities from cotton fabric, which imparts it with improved hydrophilicity for further wet processes. In the present study, the efficacy of lipase from newly isolated marine bacteria Bacillus sonorensis isolated from marine clams Paphia malabarica collected from Kalbadevi estuary, Mumbai, India, has been evaluated for scouring of cotton fabric and compared with conventional alkaline scouring of cotton. As a scouring agent for cotton fabrics, the lipase from B. s… Show more

“…Hence, the strain 4R was identified as Bacillus sonorensis . So far, Bacillus sonorensis was reported to be isolated from Sonoran Desert [ 15 ] and Kalbadevi estuary, Mumbai [ 16 ]. Abundance of thermophilic Bacillus species including Bacillus licheniformis , Bacillus aerius , Bacillus sonorensis , Bacillus subtilis , and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens in hot springs, salt marshes, and desert soil of Morocco has been observed by Aanniz et al [ 17 ].…”

“…Majority of surfactants are of bacterial origin reported as B. 41 reported isolation of lipase from marine bacteria Bacillus sonorensis for bioscouring of impurities from cotton fabric. In the present study, the highest lipase activity of 58.72 and 56.45 U ml -1 was attained using olive oil (2%) and tributyrin (2%) respectively.…”

“…One hundred microlitres of the purification bacterial solution obtained in the above test was evenly spread on the lipase test medium. After that, the inoculated plates were incubated at 37°C for 24 h in constant temperature cultivation and checked for the appearance of hydrolysis circles around the colonies (Nerurkar et al, 2015). The lipase production was determined by the appearance of hydrolysis circles and scored as follows: +, representing able to produce enzymes, means positive: −, representing unable to produce the enzyme, means negative.…”
