Marine crude-oil biodegradation: a central role for interspecies interactions [PDF]
, 2012 The marine environment is highly susceptible to pollution by petroleum, and so it is important to understand how microorganisms degrade hydrocarbons, and thereby mitigate ecosystem damage. Our understanding about the ecology, physiology, biochemistry and

Langmuir, 2013 The impact of Ca(2+) counterions on the adsorption at the air-water interface and self-assembly in aqueous solution of the rhamnolipid biosurfactant and its mixture with the anionic surfactant sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, LAS, has been studied using neutron reflectometry and small-angle neutron scattering. The results illustrate how rhamnolipids are
