The objective of this research was to isolate and characterize collagenase of Bacillus thuringiensis obtained from the collection of Aquatic Biotechnology Laboratory, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science, Padjadjaran University.  The substrate of collagen was derived from skin Tilapia waste of Cirata Reservoar. This study showed the presence of clear zone which is a sign of colagenolitik activity of B. thuringiensis. The optimum production time of collagenase was 24 hours of incubation. Collagenase of crude extract had collagenase activity of 0.181 units/ml with the protein concentration was 0.640 mg/ml. It was also found that the optimum temperature of collagenase derived from crude extract was 50° C and the optimum pH was 7-9. Keywords: collagenase; Bacillus thuringiensis;  skin, waste

We report the isolation and characterization of a new bacteriocin, thuricin S, produced by the Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. entomocidus HD198 strain. This antibacterial activity is sensitive to proteinase K, is heat-stable, and is stable at a variety of pH values (3–10.5). The monoisotopic mass of thuricin S purified by high perfomance liquid chromatography, as determined with mass spectrometry ESI-TOF-MS, is 3137.61 Da. Edman sequencing and NanoESI-MS/MS experiments provided the sequence of the 18 N-terminal amino acids. Interestingly, thuricin S has the same N-terminal sequence (DWTXWSXL) as bacthuricin F4 and thuricin 17, produced by B. thuringiensis strains BUPM4 and NEB17, respectively, and could therefore be classified as a new subclass IId bacteriocin.

Lupeol, a pentacyclic triterpenoid, was isolated from hexane and ethyl acetate solvent system. In antiquity, the stem and leaf infusion of Tapinanthus globiferus has been used ethno-medicinally as a remedy for stomach ache, diarrhea, dysentery, and wounds. Lupeol isolation from this species was carried out by column chromatography after concentrating the crude extract using a rotary evaporator, and the structure was determined by analysis of the isolate by IR, 13CNMR, 1HNMR, HSQC, and HMBC spectral analysis as well as comparison with reported data. This is the first isolation of lupeol from the stem of this species. Keywords: Tapinanthus globiferus, Column chromatography, dysentery, Lupeol
