Vet Microbiol. 1993 Oct;37(1-2):175-9. doi: 10.1016/0378-1135(93)90191-9.

Abstract

API ZYM kit was used to test enzymatic activities on eighteen strains of Dermatophilus congolensis. All strains produced lipase and acid phosphatase, which act on lipids, and leucine arylamidase which act on proteins. Another 10 exoenzymes were present in at least one of the strains.
