Abstract

Actinomycetes CS0703 has been isolated in soil sample from location in the Jeju province. Korea. and produces alkaline extracellular proteases. To maximize protease production, initial pH of the culture medium was adjusted to 12.0 with NaOH and incubated at $48^{\circ}C$ on a rotary shaking incubator(180rpm). Actinomycetes CS0703 produced high level of protease at late exponential phase when grown in OSYM medium (oatmeal 2.0%. soybean meal 1%. dried yeast 1%. mannitol 1%). (omitted)
