Optimization of biosurfactant production by Bacillus thuringiensis c25 isolated from palm oil contaminated soil [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2023 Biosurfactants of microbial origin have wide applicability because of their surface-active potentials. Bacillus thuringiensis c25 isolated from palm oil contaminated soil was used in the production of biosurfactant and the product was screened using ...

A Stable Self-Similar Singularity of Evaporating Drops: Ellipsoidal Collapse to a Point [PDF]
Archive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis, 2014 We study the problem of evaporating drops contracting to a point. Going back to Maxwell and Langmuir, the existence of a spherical solution for which evaporating drops collapse to a point in a self-similar manner is well established in the physical literature.

Statistical collapse of stratiform and convective drop diameter distributions at the ground [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2010 The probability density function of the drop diameter at the ground is investigated during stratiform and convective precipitation intervals at Darwin, Australia. We show how, after a renormalization procedure of the drop diameter, the empirical probability density functions of both types of precipitation collapse in a single curve, indicating the ...

Isolation and Identification of Bacterial Biosurfactant Activity from Mangrove Sediments
Journal of Basic Medical VeterinaryBackground: Ujung Pangkah mangroves are reported to have been contaminated with heavy metals. Such heavy metals can induce microorganisms to produce biosurfactants. Biosurfactants with amphiphilic characteristics can lower surface tension. Biosurfactants
