Abstract: A high yield α-acetylactate decarboxylase producing strain was obtained by selecting and compound mutagenesis of UV and NTG with 9 soil Bacillus Lichenforms as starting strain.Among 9 native strains,BL-4 had the highest production of α-acetylactate decarboxylase.After UV mutagenesis of BL-4,the production of α-acetylactate decarboxylase of selected mutated strain(BL-4-UV-3) increased 43.3%.Then BL-4-UV-3 took place the second mutagenesis under NTG,the production of α-acetylactate decarboxylase of selected mutated strain (BL-4-UV-3-NTG-11) increased 1.22 times compared to native strain BL-4.The optimum enzyme producing conditions were 30℃,initial pH at 6.5,and 36h fermentation.
