The cells often occur in pairs and chains, where the cells are joined together by polysaccharides on the cell walls.
Specification Viable count:10 billion CFU/g Appearance:Brown powder.
Working Mechanism megaterium has been recognized as an endophyte and is a potential agent for the biocontrol of plant diseases. Nitrogen fixation has been demonstrated in some strains of B. megaterium. Application megaterium has been an important industrial organism for decades. It produces penicillin amidase used to make synthetic penicillin, various amylasesused in the baking industry and glucose dehydrogenase used in glucose blood tests. Further, it is used for the production of pyruvate, vitamin B12, drugs with fungicidal and antiviral properties, etc. It produces enzymes for modifying corticosteroids, as well as several amino acid dehydrogenases.
