KARAKTERISASI BIOKIMIA DAN RESPONS FAKTOR ABIOTIK PADA Bacillus flexus
Abstract
Bacillus flexus merupakan bakteri Gram-positif dengan potensi besar dalam bioteknologi dan bioremediasi karena kemampuan enzimatik dan adaptasinya terhadap lingkungan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkarakterisasi sifat biokimia B. flexus dan responsnya terhadap faktor abiotik (suhu, pH, tekanan osmotik) guna mengoptimalkan aplikasinya. Uji biokimia menunjukkan kemampuan hidrolisis pati (produksi amilase), fermentasi glukosa, laktosa, dan manitol (heterofermentatif), serta produksi katalase. Uji abiotik mengungkap pertumbuhan optimal pada suhu mesofilik (24–26°C), pH basa (5–9), dan toleransi osmotik tinggi (sukrosa 40%, NaCl 30%). Hasil ini menegaskan potensi B. flexus sebagai penghasil enzim industri (amilase, katalase) dan agen bioremediasi di lingkungan salin/alkali. Saran untuk penelitian selanjutnya meliputi pengukuran kuantitatif aktivitas enzim dan uji aplikasi skala besar.
