1 INTRODUCTION

The genus Bacillus have a great potential for extracellular enzymes Many of these enzymes are extracellular enzymes that

hydrolyze large organic molecules Thus, genus Bacillus has

many application in different fields (R.Gupta et al., 2002), such as industrial manufacturing detergents, food industry, pharmaceuticals and leather processing, especially in minimize waste pollution (Outtrup H Et al., 2002) Priest in 1977 had study

demonstrated a Gram positive bacteria, spore forming Bacillus

subtilis is able to synthesize and produce protease, amylase, and a

number of axoenzyme (extracellular enzyme) The products nature of biotechnology, along with the ability to create and spore

germination by Bacillus became hereditary system typical of

Gram positive bacteria (Le Thi Lan, 1997; Priest, 1993)

Beer is a beverage products are increasingly popular and common in the holidays in Vietnam In the process of brewing beer sludge is discharged into a nutritious environment for microorganisms to grow Each day, about 2 tons of sludge discharged ”mud-dreg” from a beer brewing plant in Bac Lieu province that does not have the resolution, causing environmental pollution

Because of the biological properties of extracellular enzyme

aforementioned Bacillus subtilis of the hydrolysis of large organic

molecules Beer dregs is a nutrient-rich environment and organic

matter should be decided on the subject of Bacillus subtilis

2.2.2 Observation shape and movement of bacteria

After isolation and separation bacteria, observation the movement and shape in sterile distilled water Preparation of baterial samples by pressure drop method

+Drip 5µl sterile distilled water to lam glass

+Sterilized wire loop on alcohol lamp

+Used wire loop to take a few colony and stretch it on the drop

+Took a lame cover on the drop

+Observed the specimen under optical microscope zoom 400

2.2.3 Measure bacteria size

Measured the diameter of the microscope's field of view Using the low power objective, look through the microscope, and place the ruler under the field of view Measure the diameter in millimeters For example, you may find that the diameter of the field of view is five millimeters

Observed the bacteria under the microscope with low power Place the bacteria slide on the stage of the microscope, and then bring it into focus using the fine course adjustment knobs Locate a single bacterium The bacteria slide will typically have more than one bacterium Find one bacteria, and then estimate how many times it will fit across the field of view For example, you may find that a single rod-shaped bacteria will fit across the field of view about three times

6

Divide the diameter of the field of view by the number of times that the bacterium fits across the field of view

2.2.4 Gram-stained

Place a sample of a bacterial culture on a microscope slide

An inoculation loop can be used to transfer the bacteria to the slide

Dry the slide containing the bacterial culture Pour crystal violet stain over the bacterial specimen on the slide Let the slide stand for approximately 10 to 60 seconds depending

on the thickness of the smear on the slide Rinse the crystal violet stain off of the slide with water

Place Gram's iodine solution on the bacterial smear Let the smear stand for another 10 to 60 seconds depending on smear thickness Rinse off the extra Gram's iodine solution with more water

Add several drops of a decolorizer to the bacterial smear on the slide Rinse the decolorizer off of the slide when the decolorizer is no longer colored by the previous stains as the decolorizer runs off of the slide A typical time for this is approximately 5 seconds

Put a counterstain, such as basic fuchsin solution, on the slide over the bacterial smear Allow the counterstain to remain on the smear for approximately 40 to 60 seconds and then rinse off the counterstain with water Gram-positive bacteria will be colored purple, and Gram-negative bacteria will have a red or pink color

2.2.5 spore-stain Bacillus subtilis

Staining the spore of bacteria, the firt step like Gram staining, after that take machite green 5% on specimens Clean up lam under water then keep it in safranin liquid about 1minute and clean up under water Observing with lam in the oil

2.2.6 Chemical reaction to identify Bacillus subtilis

a Catalase reaction:

Drip one drop of H2O2 30% on the lam, take a amount of colony put into H2O2 30% drop

+Positive: bubble up

+Negative: Not bubble up

b Methyl Red Test:

Transfered 1ml of bacteria in LB medium into a tube Drip 5 drop of Methyl Red into the tube

+ Positive: turn into light red color

+ Negative: turn into yellow color

c A capacity to synthesize protease enzyme:

Use micropipett to drop 5µl bacteria from LB liquid medium Drip 5µl bacteria on SMA medium repeat 3 times and incubate in 40°C on 24 hours Bacteria strains have protease enzyme will create halo round, measure thi round follow formula:

Hydrolyze diameter = halo diameter – drop of bacteria diameter

d A capacity to synthesize amylase enzyme:
