Abstract
In the present study, amylase producing Bacillus sp. AY3 was isolated from the soil samples. Various fruit peels and starch were used in media as substrates separately and the production of amylase was optimized. Bacillus sp. AY3 produced extracellular amylase by using the fruit peels. Marked production of amylase was achieved by 5% banana, melon and grape fruit peels at 37?C. These waste thus provided the cheap source for amylase production which would be better and more economical for industrial processes.
