MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611010229 A) filed by Ashoka Institute Of Technology And Management; Ms. Shreya Gupta; Ms. Aditi Singh; Mr. Akash Gupta; Ms. Sakshi Tiwari; Ms. Khushi Sahu; Er. Shiny Jaiswal; Er. Arpita Singh; and Dr. Sarika Shrivastava, Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, on Jan. 31, for 'method for isolating, screening and characterizing soil derived protease producing bacterial strains.'
Inventor(s) include Ms. Shreya Gupta; Ms. Aditi Singh; Mr. Akash Gupta; Ms. Sakshi Tiwari; Ms. Khushi Sahu; Er. Shiny Jaiswal; Er. Arpita Singh; and Dr. Sarika Shrivastava.
The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a method and system for isolation, screening, characterization, and production of protease-producing bacteria from soil. The invention integrates environmental sampling with laboratory-based culturing, primary and secondary screening, morphological and biochemical characterization, and quantitative enzyme evaluation. Soil-derived bacterial isolates are screened using protein-based media to identify protease activity, followed by controlled fermentation and enzyme recovery. The system enables identification of robust bacterial strains capable of producing industrially relevant protease enzymes with enhanced stability and yield. The invention provides a scalable and reproducible approach suitable for industrial, pharmaceutical, and environmental applications."
