[Antimicrobial Properties Surfactants Synthesized under Different Cultivation Conditions of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus EMV B-7241].

Aim: To study the antimicrobial properties of the surface-active agents (surfactants) Acinetobacter calcoaceticus IMV B-7241 depending on the availability of yeast autolysate and trace elements in the composition of ethanol-, n-hexadecane- and glycerol-containing media.

Methods: Antimicrobial against bacteria (Escherichia coli IEM-1, Bacillus subtilis BT-2), and yeast (Candida albicans D-6) properties of the surfactant was determined by index of the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Surfactants were extracted from supernatant of cultural liquid by mixture of chloroform and methanol (2:1).
