Erratum to: Enhanced biosurfactant production through cloning of three genes and role of esterase in biosurfactant release
BACKGROUND Biosurfactants have been reported to utilize a number of immiscible substrates and thereby facilitate the biodegradation of panoply of polyaromatic hydrocarbons. Olive oil is one such carbon source which has been explored by many researchers. However, studying the concomitant production of biosurfactant and esterase enzyme in the presence of olive oil in the Bacillus species and its ...
متن کاملBiosurfactant production by Myrciaguianensisendophytic fungi
Surfactants are amphipathic molecules constituted by hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions that usually get distributed on interfaces between fluid phases of different polarities (water/oil and oil/water) [1]. Several compounds with tensoactive properties are synthetized by living organisms (animals, plants and microorganisms), being considered natural surfactants or biosurfactants, which reduce ...
متن کاملIndigenous production of biosurfactant and degradation of crude oil
The present study investigated the isolation and identification of biosurfactant producing bacteria from Iranian oil wells. The biosurfactant production of bacteria isolates was evaluated and confirmed using hemolysis and emulsification tests. The biodegradation of crude oil was studied using GC and HPLC analysis. A total of 45 strains have been isolated. These strains showed less than a 40 mN ...
متن کاملCorrelation of neuropathy target esterase activity with specific tritiated di-isopropyl phosphorofluoridate-labelled proteins.
Neuropathy target esterase (NTE) is a membrane-bound carboxylesterase activity that has been proposed as the target site for initiation of organophosphate-induced delayed neuropathy. This activity is identified by its resistance to treatment with Paraoxon and sensitivity to co-incubation with Paraoxon and Mipafox. Sucrose-density-gradient centrifugation of membrane-associated proteins isolated ...
متن کاملBiosurfactant production from marine bacteria associated with sponge Callyspongia diffusa
Marine-derived biosurfactants have gained significant attention due to their structural and functional diversity. Biosurfactant production was performed using bacteria associated with Callyspongia diffusa, a marine sponge inhabiting the southern coast of India. A total of 101 sponge-associated bacteria were isolated on different media, of which 29 isolates showed positive result for biosurfacta...
