摘要
The study was carried out for the antibacterial activity of metalloenzyme against Mutans streptococci. The epiphytic bacteria isolated from macroalgae by using traditional culture method were collected from west coast. Fifty epibiotic bacteria were isolated from the macroalgae. The metalloenzyme of the Bacillus spp was isolated and purified. The purified enzyme was tested against Mutans streptococci for their antimicrobial activity. Totally 50 isolates of Mutans streptococci were used for antimicrobial assay. 50 mu g, 100 mu g and 150 mu g of enzyme concentration were tested, among that 100 mu g of enzyme showed higher activity against mutans streptococci. Based on this study, it is concluded that metalloenzyme would serve as a potential antibacterial agent against Mutans streptococci.
