Insights on the spatial distribution of the <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> secondary metabolites under swarming motility-inducing conditions using mass spectrometry imaging. [PDF]

Microbiol Spectr
Pseudomonas aeruginosa exhibits a variety of motility types, including twitching, swimming, and swarming motility. The latter is typically associated with growth on semi-solid surfaces (e.g., 0.4% to 0.5% agar), the formation of extending tendrils, and ...

Enhanced anaerobic synthesis of rhamnolipids and emulsification of crude oil by genetically engineered Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains. [PDF]

Microb Cell Fact
Background Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a facultative anaerobic bacterium widely distributed in oil reservoirs. Efficient production of rhamnolipids by P. aeruginosa in anoxic environments of oil reservoirs contributes to oil displacement.

Emulsifying Properties of Rhamnolipids and Their In Vitro Antifungal Activity against Plant Pathogenic Fungi

Molecules, 2022
Rhamnolipids have significant emulsifying activity and the potential to become a component of pesticide emulsifier. Rhamnolipids are usually composed of two main components: mono-rhamnolipids (Rha-C10-C10) and di-rhamnolipids (Rha2-C10-C10).
