Yes sir,Thanks for ur respond, This is the kind thing that i need.

I am reposting the link I suggested above, and have gathered some
additional material for you. Each of these articles provides
information about methods of determining soil protease activity:

I hope this helps. If anything is unclear, please request clarification.
