Assay of population density of amylase producing bacteria from different soil samples contaminated with flowing effluentsAbstract: Industrial microbiology deals with soil terms with life, from the distinct viruses to larger bacteria,fungi, algae and protozoa, up to macroscopic worms and insects. Many microorganisms that live in the soilplay indispensable role in maintaining life of this planet degrading or chemically modifying molecules.Considerable human interest in soil organisms stems from their ability to synthesize a variety of usefulchemicals. Environmental conditions affect the density and composition of the flora of the soil.Academic observation can yield practical possibilities and industrial fermentation industries often keep closewatch on theoretical studies being carried out in laboratories. Industrial microbiology concern itself with theisolation and description of microorganism from natural environments, such as soil or water. The populationdensity of microorganisms based on their survival and their enzyme producing activity can be primarilyscreened along with its propagation activity. Considering this soil sample from different stations werecollected to observe the amylase producing activity of bacterial population and thereby further identifyingdifferent types of such bacteria in effluent contaminated soil and water.
