The principal objective of this study was to determine the optimal conditions for the production of biosurfactant by the indigenous bacterium, Pseudoalteromonas sp. HK-3, originating from oil-spilled areas. The relationship between total biosurfactant production and the factors affecting biosurfactant production were evaluated by statistical analysis using SPSS software. The effects of various supplemental carbon sources (e.g., glucose, dextrose, mannitol, citrate, acetate) on the maximal production of biosurfactant by the test culture of Pseudoalteromonas sp. HK-3 was then evaluated. As a result, mannitol was found in this study to be the best supplemental carbon source for the production of biosurfactant. A spot inoculation of crude cultural liquid containing the HK-3 cells generated the largest clear zone, whereas only small clear zones appeared around the spots inoculated with either supernatant only or cell pellets following centrifugation. Our results demonstrated that the HK-3 test culture supplemented with 2% mannitol at an initial pH of 6 generated the maximal amount of biosurfactant within 72 h of incubation.

The bacteria which secrete surface-active agent and decrease the surface tension of culture broth were isolated from soil samples. Among them, biosurfactant producing strain KK-7 was selected and emulsification was also detected. The KK-7 produced biosurfactant not only lipid but also glucose by using carbon source. Taxonomical characterization tests have demostrated the strain KK-7 to be Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The media composition of the P. aeruginosa KK-7 for the biosurfactant production was 1% glucose, 0.5% tryptone, 0.2% yeast extract, 0.15% potas sium phosphate mono-dibasic, 0.05% MgSO$_{4}$, initial pH 8.5, at 30$\circ $C for 2 days. In this condition, the concentration of biosurfactant was reached CMC 5 in the culture broth. Surface active material was produced maximum at stationary8 phase, but emulsification power was higher at log phase than stationary phase. It was considered that P. aeruginosa KK-7 produced biosurfactant more than one type having defferent properties and each maximum production time was different. The minimun surface tension of biosurfactant in 50 mM Tris buffer (pH8.0) was 28 dyn/cm, and CMC was 1 g/L.

청국장에서 분리한 Bacillus subtilis CH-1, Bacillus circul문 K-1과 Bacillus subtilis(natto) N-1 모두 biosurfactant를 생성하며 이 중 Bacillus subtilis CH-1가 가장 큰 생성력을 나타냈다. Biosurfactant를 대량 생산하기 위하여 AM, LM, NB과 TSB 배지중 AM을 기본배지로 선정하여 최적 탄소원과 질소원으로 glucose 2%, soy peptone 0.3%와 무기염을 포함하는 합성배지를 완성하였다. Biosurfactant의 생성은 96시간에 최대를 나타냈으며 이때 배지의 표면장력은 초기값의 약 43% 값을 나타냈다. 한편 배양온도 및 pH는 biosurfactant생산에 크게 영향을 주지 않았으며 pH5.0~8.0범위에서 대체적으로 안정한 생성을 유지하였다. 최적조건에서 배양시 crude biosurfactant 수율은 6 g/L를 얻을수 있다.

생물계면활성제 생성균주, Pseudomonas aeruginosa F722를 이용하여 다양한 배양조건과 배지조성에서 생물계면활성제 생산성을 검토하였다. 질소원과 탄소원을 검토하기 전에는 P. aeruginosa F722의 생물계면활성제 생산량은 0.78 g/l이었다. 하지만, 질소원과 탄소원을 검토한 후에는 생물계면활성제 생산량이 2배 증가한 1.66g/l이었다. 무기질소원으로 $_NH4$Cl 또는 $NaNO_2$를 첨가하였을 때 생물계면활성제 활성에 효과적이었으며 유기질소원으로는 yeast extract 또는 tryptone을 첨가하였을 때 생물계면활성제 활성이 높았다. 이중 무기 질소원으로 0.05% $NH_4$Cl , 유기 질소원으로 0.1% yeast extract를 질소원으로 첨가하였을 때 가장 최적이었다. 탄소원으로 소수성 기질(n-alkane) 또는 친수성 기질(glucose, glycol)을 첨가하여 생물계면활성제 생산량을 조사하였는데 소수성 기질보다는 친수성 기질인 3.0% glucose를 첨가하였을 때 생물계면활성제 생산량이 높았다. 이때의 탄소원/질소원 비율은 17~20이었다. P. aeruginosa F722는 배양조건 3.0% glucose, 0.05% $NH_4$Cl, 0.1% yeast extract, $35^{\circ}C$, pH 7.0, C/N ratio 20, 5 days에서 생물계면활성제 생산량은 1.66g/l이였다. 질소원이 결핍 후 탄소원을 첨가하여 배양하였을 때가 질소원과 탄소원을 함께 첨가하여 배양했을 때보다 생물계면활성제 생산속도 및 균체 생장속도가 높았다. 최적 배양조건하에서 얻어진 배양액의 표면장력은 30mN/m이었다.

Temperature and pH conditions were studied for an effective biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa YPJ-80. Efficient methods of biosurfactant separation were also investigated. pH-uncontrolled experiments at 35$^{\circ}C$ and an initial pH of 8 resulted in the best cell growth (3.6 g/L) and biosurfactant production (0.073 g biosurfactant/g cell). Biosurfactant separation was most efficient using solvent extraction with chloroform/methanol (2:1 vol%) followed by acidification using 1N HCl.

Production of biosurfactant can be substantially increased by the addition of precursors like vegetable oils, petroleum products, and other water-insoluble substances. Pseudomonas Ptm+ strain produces biosurfactant in the presence of hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH), which specifically emulsifies HCH, a recalcitrant organochlorine pesticide. Addition of previously produced crude biosurfactant by the same organism as a precursor instead of HCH increased production of biosurfactants with a decrease in the total fermentation time from 32 to 24 h. The main objective of this paper was to find alternatives for HCH as an inducer.

In this study, we sought to investigate the production and optimization of biosurfactants by soil fungi isolated from petroleum oil-contaminated soil in Saudi Arabia. Forty-four fungal isolates were isolated from ten petroleum oil-contaminated soil samples. All isolates were identified using the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, and biosurfactant screening showed that thirty-nine of the isolates were positive. Aspergillus niger SA1 was the highest biosurfactant producer, demonstrating surface tension, drop collapsing, oil displacement, and an emulsification index (E₂₄) of 35.8 mN/m, 0.55 cm, 6.7 cm, and 70%, respectively. This isolate was therefore selected for biosurfactant optimization using the Fit Group model. The biosurfactant yield was increased 1.22 times higher than in the nonoptimized medium (8.02 g/l) under conditions of pH 6, temperature 35℃, waste frying oil (5.5 g), agitation rate of 200 rpm, and an incubation period of 7 days. Model significance and fitness analysis had an RMSE score of 0.852 and a p-value of 0.0016. The biosurfactant activities were surface tension (35.8 mN/m), drop collapsing (0.7 cm), oil displacement (4.5 cm), and E₂₄ (65.0%). The time course of biosurfactant production was a growth-associated phase. The main outputs of the mathematical model for biomass yield were Yx/s (1.18), and µ_max (0.0306) for biosurfactant yield was Y_p/s (1.87) and Y_p/x (2.51); for waste frying oil consumption the So was 55 g/l, and Ke was 2.56. To verify the model's accuracy, percentage errors between biomass and biosurfactant yields were determined by experimental work and calculated using model equations. The average error of biomass yield was 2.68%, and the average error percentage of biosurfactant yield was 3.39%.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa EMS1, isolated from activated sludge, was able to grow an produce a biosurfactant on 4.5 % soybean oil, used as the source of energy and carbon. Pseudomonas aeruginosa EMS1 was cultivated at 3$0^{\circ}C$ in a reciprocal shaking incubator, and the highest biosurfactant production was observed after 3 days. Furthermore, Pseudomonas aeruginosa EMS1 was also able to use whey as a co-substrate for biosurfactant production and growth

Biosurfactant를 생산하는 미생물을 토양으로부터 분리하였다. 그 중에서 표면장력 및 계면장력 감소능에서 가장 우수한 L-417주를 순수분리하여 동정한 결과, No-Cardia속으로 판명되었다. Biosurfactant 생산을 위한 최적 배지조성은 3% n-hexadecane, 0.1% $NaNO_3$, 0.02% $K_2HPO_4$, 0.01% $KH_2PO_4$, 0.01% $MgSO_4 \;.\;7H_2O$, 0.01% $CaCl_2$ 0.02% yeast extract였으며, 최적 온도와 pH는 각각 $30^{\circ}C$와 6.0이였다. 이러한 조건에서 500ml용 shaking flask에 최적 배지 50ml를 넣어 배양했을 경우 대수증식기 말기인 4일째에 균의 증식과 유화활성이 가장 높게 나타남에 따라 Nocardia sp. L-417에 의한 bio-surfactant의 생산은 균의 생육과 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 판단된다. 이계면활성제는 산업적으로 널리 사용되는 bunker A, paraffin, corn oil 및 oilve oil 등에 대해서도 비교적 높은 유화활성을 나타내였다.

The nutritional medium requirement for biosurfactant production by Bacillus licheniformis K51 was optimized. The important medium components, identified by the initial screening method of Plackett-Burman, were $H_3PO_4,\;CaCl_2,H_3BO_3$, and Na-EDTA. Box-Behnken response surface methodology was applied to further optimize biosurfactant production. The optimal concentrations for higher production of biosurfactants were (g/l): glucose, $1.1;NaNO_3,\;4.4;MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O,\;0.8;KCl,\;0.4;CaCl_2,\;0.27;H_3PO_4,\;1.0ml/l;\;and\;trace elements\;(mg/l):H_3BO_3,\;0.25;CuSO_4,\;0.6;MnSO_4,\;2.2;Na_{2}MoO_4,\;0.5;ZnSO_4,\;6.0;FeSO_4,\;8.0;CoCL_2,\;1.0;$ and Na-EDTA, 30.0. Using this statistical optimization method, the relative biosurfactant yield as critical micelle dilution (CMD) was increased from $10{\times}\;to\;105{\times}$, which is ten times higher than the non-optimized rich medium.
