The protease enzyme production in based media was optimised using response surface methodology (RSM). Under optimised conditions 295.11 IU/mL of protease activity was recorded from the crude enzyme that marked a 5.76 fold increase in protease activity as compared to unoptimised condition (51.21 IU/mL). The crude enzyme was further explored for its dehairing activity using goat skin, destaining activity using chicken blood stained cloth and metal recovery property from old X-ray films. Further the plant growth promoting characteristics and antagonistic activity of the proteolytic strain against common phytopathogenic fungi was evaluated. The results suggested that the bacteria was positive for indole acetic acid, siderophore and ammonia production. The bacterial culture also showed antagonism against Cladosporium tennuisimum, Talaromyces albobiverticillius and Fusarium solani. The plant growth promotion activity of the bacteria was further confirmed by plant growth test using Solanum lycopersicum amended with fish scale hydrolysate produced through bacterial fermentation. A significant increase in length (8.3 cm) was observed in plants treated with fish scale hydrolysate as compared to the control (6.5 cm). 2025 Subject The topic of the resource Dehairing; Destaining; Fish scale hydrolysate; Optimization; Plant growth promotion; Protease Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Elsevier Ltd Relation A related resource ISSN: 9619534; CODEN: BMSBE Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Article Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Restricted Access; Hardcopy may be available in the library Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource online
