Abstract
A process for screening microorganisms to identify those microorganisms capable of the production of glucose-2-oxidase is disclosed. Microorganisms are cultured on a solid medium. Those capable of producing glucose-2-oxidase are identified by reaction of the hydrogen peroxide surrounding each such microorganism with a hydrogen peroxide indicating reagent. The process is particularly useful for the early detection of glucose-2-oxidase activity in slow growing strains of microorganisms such as Basidiomycetes.
