ABSTRACT
Following enrichment media technique a bacterial isolate WP was isolated from degraded pulse and identified as a Bacillus amovivorus den Dooren de Jong. Primary screening was done by gelatin, skimmed milk casein and egg albumin hydrolysis method. Optimum protease producing incubation period, medium pH and temperature for this isolate were 48 h, 8.5 and 37°C, respectively.
