Compost Tea as a Natural Bioactive Solution: Unlocking the Antimicrobial and Antiviral Potential of Bell Pepper and Citrus Wastes

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Compost teas derived from bell pepper and citrus waste are rich in bioactive phenolics and lignin derivatives, showing strong antibacterial activity against gram‐positive bacteria and potent antiviral effects against HSV‐1 and RSV. These findings highlight their potential as sustainable, circular bioresources for biomedical applications.

Effect of Rhamnolipids on Pathogenicity Characteristics of Microorganisms in Organic Compost

open access: yesResearch in Molecular Medicine, 2021
Background: Rhamnolipids are hydrophilic glycolipids, often classified as biosurfactants. They are produced by different bacterial species. Rhamnolipids are extensively studied in biological research because of their interesting features like ...

Oil degradation and biosurfactant production by the deep sea bacterium Dietzia maris As-13-3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
: Recent investigations of extreme environments have revealed numerous bioactive natural products. However, biosurfactant-producing strains from deep sea extreme environment are largely unknown. Here, we show that Dietzia maris As-13-3 isolated from deep

Pan‐Genomic and Phenotypic Characterisation of Petroleum Hydrocarbon Degradation by Pseudomonas Species

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Pseudomonas is one of the most significant bacterial genus involved in the petroleum hydrocarbon bioremediation. Innovatively, through pan‐genomic analysis at the genus level, we found that different Pseudomonas strains have excellent complementarity at the nodes of the degradation pathway of petroleum hydrocarbons.

Burkholderia thailandensis harbors two identical rhl gene clusters responsible for the biosynthesis of rhamnolipids

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2009
Background Rhamnolipids are surface active molecules composed of rhamnose and β-hydroxydecanoic acid. These biosurfactants are produced mainly by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and have been thoroughly investigated since their early discovery.

Simultaneous Removal of Lindane, Lead and Cadmium from Soils by Rhamnolipids Combined with Citric Acid. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
This study investigated the performance of rhamnolipids-citric acid mixed agents in simultaneous desorption of lindane and heavy metals from soils. The capacity of the mixed agents to solubilize lindane, lead and cadmium in aqueous solution was also ...

Why do microorganisms produce rhamnolipids? [PDF]

open access: yesWorld Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2011
We review the environmental role of rhamnolipids in terms of microbial life and activity. A large number of previous research supports the idea that these glycolipids mediate the uptake of hydrophobic substrates by bacterial cells. This feature might be of highest priority for bioremediation of spilled hydrocarbons.

Systematic Map of Chemical and Biological Surfactant Effects on Oxygen Mass Transfer at the Air–Water Interface

open access: yesWater Environment Research, Volume 98, Issue 1, January 2026.
This systematic review confirms that surfactants reduce oxygen transfer (kL/kLa), with concentration and hydrodynamics being critical factors. There was little diversity in the surfactants tested, and aquatic conditions were simplified, and variables (pH, viscosity) were neglected.
