Item Isolation, identification & characterization of alkaliphilic bacterial strain from industrial effluents(UMT Lahore, 2024-10-28) HIRA MUNEER; TEHREEM QAMAR; LAIBA KHAN; ABDUL MANANThis thesis focuses on the biotechnological potential of industrial effluent-derived alkaliphilic bacteria that have been identified and described. Microorganisms that favor high pH settings are known as alkaliphiles. In Lahore, Pakistan, they were found in untreated textile effluents. Numerous morphological, biochemical, and molecular methods, such as Gram staining, catalase and oxidase tests, and 16S rRNA gene amplification, were used to identify and characterize various bacterial strains. Finding strains that generate important industrial enzymes, including alkaline proteases and amylases, which are essential for bioremediation and the detergent business, is the study's main goal. Amylases degrade starch, but alkaline proteases efficiently remove protein-based stains from detergents. Additionally, these enzymes are essential to bioremediation since they degrade pollutants in alkaline environments. The present investigation highlights the broader implications of these discoveries and highlights the potential of alkaliphiles to tackle environmental problems, improve industrial operations, and propel scientific advancements. Through utilizing these extremophiles' special qualities, the research aims to develop long-term wastewater treatment solutions and stimulate industrial innovation. Together, these studies shed fresh light on the diversity and resilience of microbes while demonstrating the transforming power of alkaliphilic bacteria in industrial and environmental setting.
