Lipase is an extracellular enzyme in food industry and is produced by different microbial and fungal sources by submerged and solid state fermentation process. In the present study, Bacillus subtilis was employed for the production of lipase in peptone broth with olive oil as inducer. Maximum lipase production was observed at 96 hours of incubation and NH4Cl (40.75 U/ml) as salt and peptone (24U/ml) as nitrogen source and olive oil (24 U/ml) as inducer. The results of the present study demonstrate that Bacillus subtilis is ideal for extracellular production at industrial level.
