Result and Discussion:
3.1 Isolation and primary screening for cellulase producing bacteria:
Total 15 samples were collected from 5 different
sites and total 34 isolates were obtained as shown
in Table-1. From these, 20 out of 34 isolates were
removed due to similar colonial and morphological
characteristics. The resulting 14 isolates were then
tested on CMC agar for cellulase activity. Their
CMCase activity is shown in Table-2.
