  • Agarases are the enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of agar. They have wide applications in food industry, cosmetics, and medical fields since they produce oligosaccharides with remarkable enzyme activities. A Vibrio sp. strain, named HN897, was isolated from seawater samples in the South China coastal area using TCBS agar plate. This strain was identified as an agarase-producing bacterium by observation of clear zones around the colonies using agar as the sole carbon source. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16 S r RNA gene shows that the agar-degrading bacterium HN897 belongs to the member of the genus Vibrio and is close to Vibrio astriarenae.The agarase activity of the strain was determined by using reducing dinitrosalicylic acid method(DNS method), and the agarase activities of the crude enzymes in the supernatant of HN897 culture of the TSB and LB mediums were0.366 U·m L-1 and 0.413 U·m L-1, respectively, indicating that this strain has potential applications in the production of agaro-oligosaccharide.

Abstract: Agarases are the enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of agar. They have wide applications in food industry, cosmetics, and medical fields since they produce oligosaccharides with remarkable enzyme activities. A Vibrio sp. strain, named HN897, was isolated from seawater samples in the South China coastal area using TCBS agar plate. This strain was identified as an agarase-producing bacterium by observation of clear zones around the colonies using agar as the sole carbon source. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16 S r RNA gene shows that the agar-degrading bacterium HN897 belongs to the member of the genus Vibrio and is close to Vibrio astriarenae.The agarase activity of the strain was determined by using reducing dinitrosalicylic acid method(DNS method), and the agarase activities of the crude enzymes in the supernatant of HN897 culture of the TSB and LB mediums were0.366 U·m L-1 and 0.413 U·m L-1, respectively, indicating that this strain has potential applications in the production of agaro-oligosaccharide.
