The newly identified lipases of 67 bacterial strains, primarily Bacillus and Pseudomonas, from the ARS Culture Collection have been characterized on the basis of their positional specificity for triglycerides (triolein). Lipase was produced by growing the cultures in tryptone-glucose-yeast extract m...
