A bacterial strain with high flocculating activity was isolated from seawater samples. The strain was defined as Bacillus licheniformis dhs-40 by 16S rDNA identification and Biolog test. Ultrasonication test confirmed the flocculating activity of the strain was both in fermentation supernatant and cell. According to flocculating activity curve, the ideal fermentation time for collecting flocculating active substances was two days. The flocculating activity of the strain was sensitive to pH. The strain could only preserve flocculating activity while pH varied from 7 to 11. However, it could preserve flocculating activity while temperature varied from -20℃to 100 ℃ Saccharide, protein, lipid, nucleic acids qualitative test and RNase, Proteinase K treatment confirmed the flocculating active substances were proteins. Their flocculating activities were insensitive to Proteinase K.展开更多
