Production and Structural Characterization of Lactobacillus helveticus Derived Biosurfactant [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
A probiotic strain of lactobacilli was isolated from traditional soft Churpi cheese of Yak milk and found positive for biosurfactant production. Lactobacilli reduced the surface tension of phosphate buffer saline (PBS) from 72.0 to 39.5 mNm−1 pH 7.2 and ...

Evaluation of Biosurfactant Property within Plant Probiotic Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The present study focusses on proving the biosurfactant activity of the 7 isolated bacterial strains. Plants could not absorb enough nutrients as a result of contamination in the soil. This contaminants can be chemical pollutants or oil spillage.

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.
