The rhamnolipids produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains are often a mixture of several homologues. Up to seven (R2C10C10 + R1C10C10 R2C10C12 R1C10C12 R1C12:1C10 R1C12:2 R1C8:2 ) have been identified in cultures P. AT10 from soybean oil refinery wastes. This study deals with the production, purification, and identification (M7), as well their physical chemical characterization evaluation antimicrobial properties. surface tension decreases 26.8 mN/m critical micelle concentration value 1.2...

World production of oils and fats is about 2.5 million tonnes, 75% which are derived from plants. Most them used in the food industry for manufacture different products, or directly as salad oil. Great quantities waste generated by oil fat industries: residual oils, tallow, marine soap stock, frying oils. It well known that disposal wastes a growing problem new alternatives use fatty should be studied. Used due to their composition, have great potential microbial growth transformation. The...

Abstract Pseudomonas aeruginosa 47T2, grown in submerged culture with waste frying oil as a carbon source, produced mixture of rhamnolipids surface activity. Up to 11 rhamnolipid homologs (Rha‐Rha‐C 8 ‐C 10 ; Rha‐C /Rha‐C ;Rha‐Rha‐C 12:1 Rha‐Rha‐C 12 /Rha‐Rha‐C 14:1 ) were isolated from cultures P. 47T2 and identified by HPLC‐MS analysis. This article deals the production, isolation, chemical characterization RL . The physicochemical biological properties new product also studied. Its...
