Improved sensitivity, accuracy and prediction provided by a high‐performance liquid chromatography screen for the isolation of phytase‐harbouring organisms from environmental samples

Summary HPLC methods are shown to be of predictive value for classification of phytase activity of aggregate microbial communities and pure cultures. Applied in initial screens, they obviate the problems of ‘false‐positive’ detection arising from impurity of substrate and imprecision of methodologie...
