Abstract

Endoglucanase, exoglucanase and cellobiase activities of ten cellulose degradation isolates from piggery sludge and manure were analyzed. A composite microbial system was constructed by five of these bacteria named as LCB03, LCB12, LCB52, LCD12 and LCD51 with different cellulase activities from these isolates. These five bacteria were identified as Pseudomonas citronellolis, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Flavobacterium mizutaii respectively. Each of the five bacteria could product different cellobiases and cooperates to degrade natural cellulose effectively, and the microbial system therefore has great potential in cellulose-related pollution control and waste utilization.
