1. Bacteria that produce cellulase enzymes were isolated from soil samples using agar plates containing carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) to identify colonies with cellulolytic activity. The isolate with the highest cellulase activity was selected for further study.
2. The selected bacterial isolate was identified using morphological and biochemical tests according to Bergey's Manual of Determinative Bacteria.
3. Various process parameters for the production of cellulase enzymes by the selected bacterial isolate were optimized, including pH, temperature, carbon sources, nitrogen sources, and agricultural waste substrates.

CellulaseproducingbacteriawereisolatedfromsoilsbythedilutionpourplateorspreadplatemethodusingCMC agarmedia.Theplateswereincubatedat45,50,and55Cfor24hours.Tovisualizethehydrolysiszone,theplates werefloodedwithanaqueoussolutionof0.1%Congoredfor15 minandwashedwith1 M NaCl[ 17].Toindicate thecelluloseactivityoftheorganisms,diameteroftheclearzonearoundcoloniesonCMCagarwasmeasured. Besides,amorequantitativeassaymethodwasusedtodeterminethecelluloseactivityoftheselectedbacterial isolateinliquidmedium.Thecellulaseactivityofeachculturewasmeasuredbydeterminingtheamountofreducing sugars liberated by using a DNS method [18]. A bacterial isolate with the highest activity was selected for optimizationofcelluloseproduction. 2.2. Bacterial Identification Thebacterialisolateswerepresumptivelyidentifiedbymeansofmorphologicalexaminationandsomebiochemical characterizations.Theparametersinvestigatedincludedcolonialmorphology,gramreactions,endosporeformation, catalaseproduction,VPreaction,indoleproduction,starchhydrolysis,citrateutilization,andgelatinehydrolysis. TheresultswerecomparedwithBergeysManualofDeterminativeBacteria[19]. 2.3. Enzyme Production Medium Production medium contained (g/L) glucose 0.5gm, peptone 0.75gm, FeSO 40.01gm, KH2PO40.5gm, and MgSO40.5gm. Ten millilitres of medium were taken ina 100mLconical flask. The flasks were sterilized in autoclaveat121Cfor15min,andaftercooling,theflaskwasinoculatedwithovernightgrownbacterialculture.
