- Abstract:
- ... Several facultative bacterial strains tolerant to high temperature and salinity were isolated from the oil reservoir brines of an Iranian oil field (Masjed-I Soleyman). Some of these isolates were able to grow up to 60°C and at high concentration of NaCl (15% w/v). One of the isolates grew at 40°C, while it was able to grow at 15% w/v NaCl. Tolerances to NaCl levels decreased as the growth tempera ...

- Abstract:
- ... The extracellular biosurfactant product secreted by a marine bacterium was concentrated and purified directly from the fermentation broth in a single step by ultrafiltration (UF) employing YM 30 kDa (UF-I) and Omega 10 kDa (UF-II) polyethersulfone membranes. The optimum operating pressure required for both membranes, UF-I and UF-II, were found to be 30 and 35 psi, respectively. The biosurfactant f ...

- Abstract:
- ... Petroleum-polluted environmental samples were collected to isolate and characterize biosurfactant-producing bacteria. Culturing of the collected samples in LB-broth and enrichments in chemically defined medium (CDM) with various carbon sources yielded 51 strains, some of which produced biosurfactants/bioemulsifiers when challenged with crude oil as a sole carbon source. The I-15 isolate, a Gram-po ...
