Abstract: Cellulases are the enzymes that hydrolyze cellulosic biomass and are produced by the microorganisms that grown over cellulosic matters. Bacterial cellulases possess more advantages when compared to the cellulases from other sources. In present study 18 Cellulase producing bacteria were isolated from wood furnishing area, soil under dry leaves, cow dung, forest area. All the isolates were later purified and screened for their cellulase activity. Result indicate that bacteria MJTP 2015 09 shows best result.

Keywords: cellulose, cellulase, cellulosic biomass, Bacillus subtilis
