ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a novel microbe belonging to Serratia family, its isolation method and the preparation method using it. More particularly, the present invention relates to a microorganism of Serratia family producing laccase, lignin peroxidase and Mn-dependent-peroxidase which are the kinds of lignin lyases, and a method for separating the microbe from insect gut, as well as a method for preparing laccase, lignin peroxidase and Mn-dependent-peroxidase. The microorganism of the present invention can be used not only in the treatment of industrial sewage and harmful environmental substance but also in oil degradation, in biological bleaching of pulp since it can produce lignin lyases. More over, the microbe can also be used effectively in industry of preparing fuel, forage and other chemicals through lignin degradation.
