Screening of Soil Bacteria for Phytase Activity

SUMMARY

The aim of the present papaer was to realize a screening for phytase producing bacteria isolated from soil where pig manure was stored. It was used PSM, PKA media and the molybdate-blue method in order to determine the presence of phytase- phosphate solubilizing- and proteaze- producing bacteria. About half of the bacterial isolates were phytase producers
