Amylases are a class of biocatalyst enzymes that may break down the amylase biomass that is produced by many different microorganisms, such as fungi and bacteria, and is found in the natural environment. The generation of amylase by an isolated amylase-producing microbe is the focus of the current study. Three soil samples from various locations in the Peshawar region were taken in order to isolate the strain that produces amylase. Using iodine solution and activity zone approaches, all isolated colonies were tested. Only three bacterial colonies out of 16 strains produced amylase in a favourable manner. Tests using morphological and biochemical analysis were then used to characterize these bacterial isolates, which were given the names MB7, MD2, and MD4.
