Biosurfactant production by Antarctic facultative anaerobe Pantoea sp. during growth on hydrocarbons / Evgenia Vasileva-Tonkova, Victoria Gesheva.

Abstract: | Facultative anaerobe Pantoea sp. strain A-13, isolated from ornithogenic soil of Frazier Islands, near Casey station in East Antarctica, produced glycolipid biosurfactants when grown on n-paraffins or kerosene as sole source of carbon and energy. Glycolipids produced by kerosene-grown cells decreased surface tension at air-water interface to 30 mN/m and possessed low critical micelle concentration value of 40 mg/l, which indicated high surface activity. They efficiently emulsified aromatic hydrocarbons, kerosene, and n-paraffins. Biosurfactant production contributed to increase in cell hydrophobicity, which correlated with increased growth of strain on tested hydrocarbons. Results indicate that Pantoea sp. A-13 appears to be valuable source for application in accelerated environmental bioremediation. |
