TL;DR: In this paper, a halopalkaliphilic marine Saccharopolyspora sp. stain A9 with an ability to produce surfactants, oxidant and detergent stable α-amylase was isolated from marine sediments collected from west coast of India.
Abstract: A halopalkaliphilic marine Saccharopolyspora sp. stain A9 with an ability to produce surfactants, oxidant and detergent stable α-amylase was isolated from marine sediments collected from west coast of India. The α-amylase from strain A9 was purified to homogeneity with the aid of ammonium sulfate precipitation and gel filtration chromatography by using Sephadex G-75, insoluble corn starch and sephacryl S-100 column, with a 39.01-fold increase in specific activity. SDS-PAGE and zymogram activity staining showed a single band equal to molecular mass of 66 kDa. Enzyme was found to be stable in presence of wide range of NaCl concentration with maximum activity found at 11% (w/v) of NaCl. Enzyme showed remarkable stability towards laboratory surfactants, detergents and oxidants. Glucose, maltose and maltotriose were the main end product of starch hydrolysis, indicating it is α-amylase.

TL;DR: In this paper, Bacillus sp. AS-1 and AS-2 were used to produce very high titers of α-amylase (198.950 U/g fermented dry matter) and glucoamylases (3426 U /g fermented fine matter), respectively, during solid state fermentation of wheat bran.

TL;DR: Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L) seeds were analysed quantitatively for amylase inhibitor (AI) activity and qualitatively, by an in-gel-detection method on polyacrylamide gels, to develop strategies to strengthen defense mechanisms in pigeonpea against H. armigera.
