Biosurfactant Production by Bacillus salmalaya for Lubricating Oil Solubilization and Biodegradation

This study investigated the capability of a biosurfactant produced by a novel strain of Bacillus salmalaya to enhance the biodegradation rates and bioavailability of organic contaminants. The biosurfactant produced by cultured strain 139SI showed high physicochemical properties and surface activity...
