Biosurfactant-Producing Lactobacilli: Screening, Production Profiles, and Effect of Medium Composition [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Soil Science, 2011
Biosurfactant production was screened in four lactobacilli strains. The highest biosurfactant production (excreted and cell-bound biosurfactants) was achieved with Lactobacillus paracasei ssp.

Production of cupcake-like dessert containing microbial biosurfactant as an emulsifier [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
This work describes the application of the biosurfactant from Candida bombicola URM 3718 as a meal additive like cupcake. The biosurfactant was produced in a culture medium containing 5% sugar cane molasses, 5% residual soybean oil and 3% corn steep ...

Production of biosurfactant by Bacillus megaterium and its correlation with lipid peroxidation of Lactuca sativa

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Petroleum, 2022
The biosurfactant-producing bacterial isolate was isolated from an oil-contaminated water sample. This study aimed to determine the production of biosurfactant and its effect on the plant growth via the biosorption of some heavy metals.

Production of lipopeptide biosurfactant by Kurthia gibsonii KH2 and their synergistic action in biodecolourisation of textile wastewater [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Textile dyes are recalcitrant molecules and contain a high level of chemicals and colour which poses a serious challenge to surrounding environments.

Performance and kinetics of benzo(a)pyrene biodegradation in contaminated water and soil and improvement of soil properties by biosurfactant amendment

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
As a hydrophobic pollutant, benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) is difficult to be degraded by microbes due to its poor water solubility. To improve its water solubility, this study harvested a biosurfactant from swine wastewater.

Isolation and chemical characterization of the biosurfactant produced by Gordonia sp. IITR100.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Biosurfactants are amphipathic molecules produced from microorganisms. There are relatively few species known where the detailed chemical characterization of biosurfactant has been reported.

Modifying Mechanical Strength and Capillary Porosity of Portland Cement-Based Mortar Using a Biosurfactant from Pseudomonas fluorescens

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
We characterized the effects of a biosurfactant derived from Pseudomonas fluorescens on slump loss, mechanical strength, capillary porosity, and bacterial colonization inside Portland cement-based mortar samples.

Evaluation of surface activity of rhamnolipid biosurfactants produced from rice bran oil through dynamic surface tension

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2023
The use of low-cost carbon substrates such as agricultural residues can drastically lower the cost of biosurfactant production. In this study, rice bran oil extracted from agricultural waste was used as a renewable carbon source for biosurfactant ...

Response surface methodology-based optimization of biosurfactant production from isolated Bacillus aryabhattai strain ZDY2

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2020
A potential biosurfactant producing isolate was identified as Bacillus aryabhattai strain ZDY2. Biosurfactant production was enhanced by 2.51-fold through the development of an optimized process using response surface methodology.
