Microbial surfactants are amphiphilic surface-active substances aid to reduce surface and
interfacial tensions by accumulating between two fluid phases. They can be generically …

Surfactants are compounds that can reduce the surface tension between two different
phases or the interfacial tension of the liquid between water and oil, possessing both …

In this work, the biodegradation of the crude oil by the potential biosurfactant producing
Bacillus subtilis A1 was investigated. The isolate had the ability to synthesize degradative …

Production of biosurfactant by crude oil degrading bacteria for use in microbial enhanced oil
recovery was investigated. Crude oil utilizing bacteria were isolated from soil by enrichment …

Because of their specific physical and chemical properties (amphiphilicity, solubility in polar
and nonpolar liquids, ability to form micelles, adsorption at phase boundaries, low toxicity) …

With the aim of producing a biotensioactive material for use in the remediation of marine
environments, screening for biosurfactant‐producing bacteria was conducted with strains …

This study evaluated firstly the performance of the Continuous Stirred Tank bioReactor
system (CSTR) for the treatment of highly toxic petroleum refinery wastewaters at the pilot …

This study evaluated bacterial populations (total, lipolytic, P-solubilizers, N-fixing free, and
hydrocarbonoclastic bacteria) from uncontaminated soils or soils contaminated with …

Plant pathogens caused severe economic losses to the agricultural farming. Members of the
genus Bacillus are considered to be a natural laboratory for the production of biologically …

Background Environmental soil contamination is a serious problem for humans worldwide,
as it causes many diseases. Methods The present study focuses on utilizing biosurfactants …
