Effects of Rhamnolipid and Microbial Inoculants on the Vermicomposting of Green Waste with Eisenia fetida. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The effects of adding the biosurfactant rhamnolipid, the lignolytic and cellulolytic fungus Phanerochete chrysosporium, and the free-living nitrogen-fixing bacterium Azotobacter chrococcum on vermicomposting of green waste with Eisenia fetida was ...

Heterologous Rhamnolipid Biosynthesis: Advantages, Challenges, and the Opportunity to Produce Tailor-Made Rhamnolipids [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 The first heterologous expression of genes responsible for the production of rhamnolipids was already implemented in the mid-1990s during the functional identification of the rhlAB operon. This was the starting shot for multiple approaches to establish the rhamnolipid biosynthesis in different host organisms.

An Interaction of Rhamnolipids with Cu2+ Ions [PDF]
Molecules, 2018 This study was focused on the description of interaction between Cu2+ ions and the 1:1 mono- and dirhamnolipid mixtures in the premicellar and aggregated state in water and 20 mM KCl solution at pH 5.5 and 6.0. The critical micelle concentration of biosurfactants was determined conductometrically and by the pH measurements.

Microbial production of rhamnolipids: opportunities, challenges and strategies
Microbial Cell Factories, 2017 Rhamnolipids are a class of biosurfactants which contain rhamnose as the sugar moiety linked to β-hydroxylated fatty acid chains. Rhamnolipids can be widely applied in many industries including petroleum, food, agriculture and bioremediation etc ...

Production and evaluation of mono- and di-rhamnolipids produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa VM011
Data in Brief, 2019 Rhamnolipids are amphiphilic compounds secreted by bacteria and possess the emulsification ability. Emulsification ability makes microbial surfactants an excellent candidate for assisting in the breakdown and removal of oil spills. Rhamnolipids have been

Surface hardness impairment of quorum sensing and swarming for Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The importance of rhamnolipid to swarming of the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa is well established. It is frequently, but not exclusively, observed that P. aeruginosa swarms in tendril patterns--formation of these tendrils requires rhamnolipid.
