Chitin is the richest renewable polymer carbohydrate in the marine environment and is an energetic source of nitrogen and carbon for marine organisms. Marine chitinolytic bacteria play a basic role in the nutrient cycling in the oceans by biodegradation of chitinous waste to useful form. Chitinase-producing bacteria from marine wastes increasing attention has received, and it serves two purposes: (i) reduce environmental hazards by waste management and (ii) increases generation of industrially important value-added products. This review aims to present the environmental pitfalls caused by marine waste and successes of chitinase-producing bacteria in employ waste for the generation of functional and valuable products, as well as to present importance role of chitinase-producing bacteria in industry. The focus is on isolation, purification, biochemical and enzymatic characteristics of chitinolytic bacteria in the oceans.
