In this study, proteolytic fungal cultures were isolated from soil contaminated with abattoir waste for protease production. The protease was produced under submerged fermentation using with various fermentation media. Among the fungal cultures isolated, in this study, fungal isolate (IS5) exhibited highest proteolytic activity andmaximumenzyme with 0.277 U ml-1.Minimum protease activity of 0.056U ml-1 was noticed with fungal isolate IS2 remaining are intermediate. The proteolytic property of fungal culture was screened through plate screening method. The potent proteolytic culture was identified as Aspergillus spp.
