Biosurfactant Production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa SNP0614 and its Effect on Biodegradation of Petroleum
Abstract
An efficient biosurfactant-producing strain was isolated and cultured from Dagang oil field (China) using crude oil as sole source of carbon. Based on partial sequenced 16S rDNA analysis, the isolated strain was identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa SNP0614. The bacterium P. aeruginosa SNP0614 produced a type of biosurfactant with excessive foam-forming properties. After microbial cultivation at 37°C and 150 rpm for 12 h, the produced biosurfactant was found to reduce the surface tension to 25.4 mN/m with critical micelle concentration (CMC) of 45.0 mg/L. After 20 days of incubation, the biosurfactant exhibited 90% emulsification activity (E 24 ) on crude oil. FTIR spectroscopy of extracted biosurfactant indicated the biosurfactant as lipopeptide. The significant synergistic effect between P. aeruginosa SNP0614 and the mixed oildegrading bacteria resulted in increasing n -alkanes degradation rate by 30%. The strain P. aeruginosa SNP0614 represented as a promising biosurfactant producer and could be applied in a variety of biotechnological and industrial processes, particularly in microbial enhanced oil recovery and the bioremediation of oil pollution.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
