Best answer

Answer: 4. Clostridium butylicum - Lipase - removal of oil stains

Clostridium butylicum is used to produce butyric acid. Lipase is obtained from fungi such as Candida and is used in detergents, so option 4 is wrongly matched.

The first three are correct: cyclosporin A (immunosuppressant) from Trichoderma polysporum, statins from Monascus purpureus, and streptokinase from Streptococcus.
