Objective To screen Bacillus strains producing Leflunomide. Methods Extracellular metabolites of 31 Bacillus strains were analyzed by liquid chromatography-hybrid quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-QTOF MS). Results Extracellular metabolites were detected in 31 Bacillus strains. The content of Leflunomide was relatively high in the detected compounds, and with the highest match degree. The result showed that six Bacillus strains contained Leflunomide, including Bacillus cohnii FJAT-10017, Bacillus alcalophilus FJAT-10014, Brevibacillus agri FJAT-10018, Aneurinibacillus aneurinilyticus FJAT-10004, and Gracilibacillus dipsosauri FJAT-14266. The content of Leflunomide was highest in Gracilibacillus dipsosauri FJAT-14266, with the relative content of 12.16 %. Conclusion Gracilibacillus dipsosauri FJAT-14266 was the high-yield Bacillus strain producing lefunomide. This result provided the theory basis for development and utilization of this immunomodulator from Bacillus.
