NEW MICROORGANISM BELONGING TO BACILLUS SUBTILIS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new microorganism capable of decomposing protein contained in organic waste fluid and/or biological sludge, and therefore having protease activity of high capability. SOLUTION: This new microorganism Bacillus Subtilis X-2 belonging to Bacillus Subtilis has capability of decomposing the protein contained in the organic waste fluid and/or the biological sludge. The organic waste fluid and/or the biological sludge preferably comprise sewage surplus sludge. The microorganism preferably comprises the Bacillus Subtilis X-2 which is deposited to be given an assignment number of FERM P-18015.
