Identification and quantification of surfactin, a nonvolatile lipopeptide in Moutai liquor
Surfactin as a nonvolatile cyclic lipopeptide has attracted great attention over the past few decades. This work focused on identification, quantification, and tracing of surfactin in Moutai liquor by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with ...

Surfactin - Novel Solutions for Global Issues [PDF]
The constant demand for new, effective therapeutic agents has triggered intensive research in the field of diverse antimicrobials of natural origin. These compounds are synthesized by all forms of life and have important biomedical and biotechnological properties, and are thus widely considered a potential solution to the growing problem of resistance ...

Infrared Nanospectroscopy of Phospholipid and Surfactin Monolayer Domains [PDF]
A main challenge in understanding the structure of a cell membrane and its interactions with drugs is the ability to chemically study the different molecular species on the nanoscale. We have achieved this for a model system consisting of mixed monolayers (MLs) of the biologically relevant phospholipid 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-phosphatidylcholine and ...

Fe Nanoparticles Enhanced Surfactin Production in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens [PDF]
Surfactin, as one of the most powerful biosurfactants, can be widely applied in agriculture, food, and pharmaceutics. However, low biosynthesis efficiency is the major obstacle in its commercialization. Here, we used nanoparticles to increase the surfactin production in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens MT45 through enhancing the secretion (the key step of ...

Polydiacetylene-based high-throughput screen for surfactin producing strains of Bacillus subtilis. [PDF]
Although traditional mutation is still an attractive approach for strain improvement, it is tedious, time-consuming, and inefficient to screen for surfactin producing strains.
