Abstract
 

The culture conditions for maximum lipase activity by Micrococcus sp. previously isolated from Clarias gariepinus intestine were optimized. The varied culture parameters assessed were incubation time (12 hourly for 60hours), temperature (25, 30, 34, 37, 40 and 45oC), medium pH (4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9), additional carbon source (glucose, sucrose, lactose, maltose and mannitol), nitrogen source (peptone, urea, yeast extract, ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, calcium nitrate and ammonium hydrogen phosphate) and metal ions (Mn2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Zn2+, Mg2+ and Ca2+). The lipase activity was measured using titrimetric method and olive oil as substrate. Maximum lipase activity of 27.6U/ml was found in 48h, 37oC and pH 7.0. Among all the additional carbon sources, maltose gave the maximum activity of 30.6U/ml and among all the nitrogen sources and metal ions peptone and Ca2+ gave maximum activity of 27.6U/ml and 27.7U/ml respectively. The present study has revealed Micrococcus sp. from a freshwater fish intestine as a candidate for potential industrial production of lipase.
