Bacteria are widespread in nature as they can adapt to any extreme environmental
conditions and perform various physiological activities. Marine environments are one of the …

Biosurfactants are surface-active biomolecules that are produced by a variety of
microorganisms. They have gained biotechnologist interest for high diversity and their …

Abstract Effect of biosurfactant on biodegradation of pyrene was studied using a microbial
consortium predominantly composed of Pseudomonas viridiflava (49.5%) and …

The Caspian Sea, which is the largest landlocked body of water on the planet, receives
substantial annual hydrocarbon input from anthropogenic sources (eg, industry, agriculture …

Objectives This study was aimed to isolate and identify the biosurfactant producing marine
bacteria from petroleum hydrocarbons contaminated sediments by 16S rRNA gene …

In the present study, two bacteria Pseudomonas sp. and Bacillus sp. resistant to the crude oil
were isolated from the Khor Musa sediments, Persian Gulf, Iran. Hemolysis, oil spreading …

An effective biosurfactant-producing strain, denoted ZG0427, was isolated from oil-
contaminated soil samples collected from an oilfield in northwest China using the drop …

The problem of eliminating petroleum pollution and its consequences is currently very
relevant for Kazakhstan, which is among the ten largest oil-producing countries. The …

The present study aimed to identify novel microbial producers of bioemulsificant compounds
from Antarctic soils. Fifty-nine microbial strains were isolated from five different locations at …

Purpose: Biosurfactants are applied in drug formulations to improve drug solubility and in
some cases, treat diseases. This study is focused on generating, extracting, purifying and …
