Abstract: Chromogenic 4-Aminoantipyrine/phenol reaction was used in the procedure of strain screening. A strain named Str-6 wasobtained. Taxonomy of the strain, based on its morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics, as well as the sequence of 16SrDNA, was classified to Streptomyces collinus. The preliminary fermentation test showed that strain Str-6 could produced extracellular L-glutamateoxidase, and the maximal yield could reached 0.023 1 U/mg protein cultured at 28℃ for 36 h. It has strong substrate specificity for L-glutamate.The optimal pH was 6.0 and the temperature of the L-glutamate oxidase was 35℃ . The enzyme exhibited high thermal stability at 35-40℃ andstable at pH6.0--7.0.
