Freshly split coconut husk was steeped <strong>in</strong> 20ppt sea water, for 3days<br />
and the <strong>ret</strong> <strong>liquor</strong> <strong>generated</strong> was filtered through cotton and stored at -200C<br />
till used. At the time <strong>of</strong> use it was diluted us<strong>in</strong>g 20ppt seawater to atta<strong>in</strong> a<br />
f<strong>in</strong>al concentration <strong>of</strong> 100ppm polyphenol and was supplemented with<br />

The medium was autoclaved at 10 lbs for 10m<strong>in</strong>.<br />
2.2.8.c Inoculation and <strong>in</strong>cubation<br />
Water samples were used as such, sediment samples were diluted<br />
us<strong>in</strong>g 20ppt sterile seawater by mix<strong>in</strong>g 109 sediment with IOOml sea water.<br />
Partly <strong>ret</strong>ted husk pieces (lOgms) were crushed and agitated with sterile<br />
20ppt seawater. Inoculations were made to f<strong>in</strong>al volume <strong>of</strong> 10%(v/v) and<br />
<strong>in</strong>cubated at room temperature ( 28±I°c ) on a rotary shaker for 7 days.<br />
