Abstract
A wide variety of microorganisms produce, and in most cases secrete extracellularly, amylases having different specificities and some rather interesting properties (Fogarty & Kelly, 1980; Fogarty, 1983). Gram-positive bacteria, and particularly the genus Bacillus, are prolific producers of amylases, although very few are found among Gram-negative bacteria. A wide range of moulds produce amylases, particularly the genus Aspergillus. In recent years interest and awareness in the amylolytic activities of yeasts has generated a number of studies of these systems. It is not the purpose of this review to provide an exhaustive or detailed treatise of microbial amylases. Other publications have dealt with the subject area extensively (Fogarty & Kelly, 1979, 1980; Fogarty, 1983) and this work has as its aim an update of developments which have taken place in the area in recent years.
