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 ...

Surfactin: A Quorum-Sensing Signal Molecule to Relieve CCR in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens
Bacillus utilize preferred sugars such as glucose over other carbon sources due to carbon catabolite repression (CCR). Surfactin is a small signal molecule to regulate the quorum-sensing (QS) response such as biofilm formation and sporulation in B ...

Surfactin Isoforms from Bacillus coagulans
Abstract Bacillus coagulans has been found to produce several surfactins that are powerful lipopeptide surfactants. Four main components with molecular weights 1007, 1021 and 1035 Da were separated. Their structures have been confirmed by spectrometric and spectroscopic studies and by acid hydrolysis.

Surfactin C inhibits platelet aggregation
Abstract This study was designed to investigate the effect of surfactin C, which is derived from Bacillus subtilis, on platelet aggregation and homotypic leucocyte aggregation. Surfactin C strongly and dose-dependently inhibited platelet aggregation, which was stimulated both by thrombin (0.1 U mL−1), a potent agonist that activates the ...
