Abstract

Chitinases are glycosyl hydrolase which catalyze degradation of chitin. Microorganisms produce variety of chitinases that exhibits different substrate specificity and applicability in various fields. In the present study 107 actinomycetes obtained from water and soil samples of various habitats of Maharashtra, were screened for chitin hydrolysis activity on colloidal chitin agar. 30 isolates with prominent chitin hydrolysis ability were subjected for quantitative screening in colloidal chitin broth. 10 isolates with highest chitin hydrolysis used to study effect of fungal, insect, shrimp chitin and crab chitin on chitinase production.  The isolate M1 from Mumbai sea water showed a good chitinase activity with all types of substrates. The highest activity was observed in the presence of insect chitin- 3.7 U/ml followed byfungal chitin- 3.8 U/ml, shrimp chitin- 3.5 U/ml and crab chitin- 3.4 U/ml. Isolate M1 is further identified microscopically and 16S rRNA sequencing as Streptomyces sp.
