The invention belongs to the technical field of waterproof materials, particularly relates to a water-awakening type self-healing microbial 
capsule, and further relates to a waterproof material prepared from the microbial 
capsule. The microbial 
capsule is prepared from the following raw materials: ochrobactrum, a culture medium, 
nutrient substances, a 
calcium source, 
urea, a mixture of 
aluminate and 
gypsum, and swelling resin. The waterproof material provided by the invention can realize secondary repair, and can be directly awakened when meeting water, when a concrete member cracks, water flows into a crack, and the 
aluminate and the 
gypsum finish the first repair. And when the expanded 
crystal repaired for the first time cracks, water is in contact with the 
ochrobactrum anthropi along with the cracks, the 
ochrobactrum anthropi has a mineralization deposition effect, and the cracks are filled with mineralization deposition products again, so that the second time of repairing is completed. The microbial capsule and the waterproof material provided by the invention have the advantages of low cost of adopted materials, easily available raw materials, simple product production process and remarkable social and economic effects.
