A natural lipopeptide of surfactin for oral delivery of insulin [PDF]
Drug Delivery, 2016 Surfactin, a natural lipopeptide produced by Bacillus, is gaining attention for potentially biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. Here, surfactin was assayed for oral delivery of insulin (INS) by its ability to bind to and promote protein to penetrate through the cell membrane. Analysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis,

Organization and characterization of genetic regions in Bacillus subtilis subsp. krictiensis ATCC55079 associated with the biosynthesis of iturin and surfactin compounds. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Bacillus subtilis subsp. krictiensis ATCC55079 produces the cyclic lipopeptide antibiotics iturin A-F as well as several surfactins. Here, we analyzed and characterized the biosynthetic genes associated with iturin and surfactin production in this strain.

Journal of Food Protection, 2014 Surfactin-type lipopeptides are suspected of being implicated in the rare food poisonings caused by Bacillus species outside the Bacillus cereus cluster. In order to get information on surfactin levels in actual human foods, bacilli from three commercial samples of a Japanese traditional bean product, natto, were isolated in order to clarify their ...

Enrichment and Isolation of Surfactin-degrading Bacteria
Journal of Oleo Science, 2021 A total of 100 environmental samples were investigated for their ability to degrade 1 g/L surfactin as a substrate. Among them, two enrichment cultures, which exhibited microbial growth as well as surfactin degradation, were selected and further investigated.
