Aims: Prospecting different filamentous fungi for high production of amylases in standard conditions for future application in biotechnology industries. Methodology: Samples were collected in different field areas in the state of Bahia, Brazil, for isolating filamentous fungi. Fungi were grown in Petri dishes in a culture medium containing 4% Quaker oatmeal and 2% bacteriological agar. Fungi screening was carried out in liquid medium containing 1% starch at 30C and pH6.0 under static conditions for 4 days. Proteins and enzyme activities were determined by Bradford and DNS methods, respectively. A submerged fermentation was performed with different liquid media in order to obtain the best growth composition and enzyme production for the selected fungus. Several conditions such as time course of inactivation, pH, temperature, carbon and nitrogen sources were determined in the culture medium with the aim of
