Surfactants as stimulants of enzyme production by microorganisms.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The addition of Tween 80 and sucrose monopalmitate, nonionic surfactants, to fungal cultures resulted in marked increases in yields of the enzymes cellulase, amylase, sucrase, beta-1 --> 3 glucanase, xylanase, purine nucleosidase, and benzoyl esterase. The action appears to be an effect of the surfactant on cell permeability.

متن کاملBiosurfactants from Yeasts
Biosurfactants are surface active compounds derived from living organisms, mainly microorganisms. Almost all surfactants currently in use are chemically derived from petroleum. However, in recent years, the interest in chemical surfactants has been substituted by an increase in the use of microbial surfactants. Compared with chemical surfactants, biosurfactants have more advantages, for example...
