Abstract
An alkaline Lonar Lake is a nature’s gift to human being. It is an unique Basaltic rock meteorite impact crater present on the earth. The surrounding ecosystem of Lonar crater is responsible for the occurrence of rare and unique life forms. The pH of Lonar lake crater ranges between 10-12 due to the combination of geological, geographical and climatic conditions. Surrounding the lake region there is a presence of various temples which are in deteriorated conditions and away from the attention. Such temples are the dwelling places of bats and monkeys present at Lake region. Bats are mainly dependent upon Lonar lake and its surrounding for its food and water purpose. So such bats which are dependent upon alkaline water of Lonar lake strongly having the chances of production of such enzymes (Amylase, Protease, Lipase, etc.) which are stable at high alkaline pH and so such study about the production and characterization of enzymes from bat guano of Lonar lake is having its great importance regarding to industries such as cloth, paper, detergent, etc
