Abstract
A rapid and effective method for direct detection, selection and testing of microorganisms able to produce both cell-bound and extracellular true lipases is described. The method is based on formation of clearance zones on turbid solid media with emulsified olive oil around or under the colonies, cell fractions or culture supernatant of lipase-producing organisms. The method was successfully applied for the screening and isolation of microorganisms producing alkaline lipases.
