Abstract:The aim of this study was to determine the potential of keratinases produced by Bacillus species isolated from poultry feather waste in stain removal. The effect of individual and combined detergent components on the keratinase activity of EZYKer-51, EZYKer-50 and EZYKer-53 enzymes produced from keratin degrading Bacillus licheniformis-K51, Bacillus subtilis-K50 and Bacillus sp.-K53 respectively was determined. EZYKer-51, which had the least enzyme inhibition in the presence of the detergent component was used… Show more
