Summary: | Mannose and mannooligosaccharide acted as prebiotic that consumed by probiotic bacteria.
Mannanase were the second most important enzymes for the hydrolysis of hemicelluloses, beside
xylanase. The objective research was to obtain eminent strains of Bacillus sp. in mannan degradation
which can potentially be a probiotic candidate. The study employed a completely randomized design
using four concentration levels repeated six times. Halotolerant Bacteria were isolated from mangrove
ecosystem at Hanura beach, Teluk Pandan, Pesawaran District in Lampung Province. They are grown on
the sea water complete agar media. Mannan degradation isolates were then characterized to determine
their character with a variety of tests, including resistance to pH, salt, and metal ions, pathogenicity,
and determination of mannanase production duration. Thirty strains are found to grow at 3-6% salt
content, and 9 of them have mannanolytic activity. They grow optimally at pH 7-10. Seven isolates
were proven to be positively hydrolyzed blood agar in the pathogenicity test. The addition of Iron (III)
Chloride increased the enzyme activity by 11.12% in IBK3 isolates at 96 hours of cultivation period
which was 0.05 UmL-1. It acted as cofactors of enzymatic reactions. Strains Bacillus sp., were able
to degrade mannan substrate. It quantified using Index of mannanolytic. Strain IBK3 has the highest
index of mannanolytic activity as much as 10.74. Their ability to grow in salt media indicated that
they were halotolerant. They were more likely to live at base rather than acid habitat. Only IBK3 and
ID2K1 showed non-pathogenic isolates. Only FeCl3
addition has proven to rise up enzymatic activity. |
