Abstract

Two hundreds and sixty five isolations of microorganisms were obtained from 240 samples of fermentation liquor during indigo fermentation processes from indigo fermentation plant in Ban Nakuha, Meung district, phrae province. Only 160 isolations could change indigo blue color into leuco-indigo. Of these, there were 6 isolations showed the highest leuco-indigo production activity; L4NG3(-2)I1 L1P1(-3)I1, L4NG3(-2)I3, L4NG4(-3)I2, L2P2(-2)I2 and L1P4(-2)I3. From the morphological study; L1P1(-3)I1 L2P2(-2)I2, L1P4(-2)I3 and L4NG4(-3)I2 were found in rod shape, whereas L4NG3(-2)I1 and L4NG3(-2)I3 were found in oval. After the biochemical tests, the results showed that L4NG3(-2)I1, L1P4(-2)I3 L4NG3(-2)I3 were in the Genus Bacillus, L4NG4(-3)I2 was in the Genus Enterobacteriaceae, whereas L1P1(-3)I1 and L2P2(-2)I2 could not be identified. The 16S rDNA sequences of L4NG3(-2)I1, L2P2(-2)I2 L1P1(-3)I1, L1P4 (-2)I3, L4NG3(-2)I1 and L4NG4(-3)I2 displayed high identity to Bacillus sp., Streptomyces sp. Bacillus sp., B. flexus, B. aryabhattai, and B. subtilis, respectively.
