A total of 100 environmental samples were investigated for their ability to degrade 1 g/L surfactin as a substrate. Among them, two enrichment cultures, which exhibited microbial growth as well as surfactin degradation, were selected and further investigated. After several successive cultivations, nanopore sequencing of full-length 16S rRNA genes with MinION was used to analyze the bacterial species in the enrichment cultures. Variovorax spp., Caulobacter spp., Sphingopyxis spp., and Pseudomonas spp. were found to be dominant in these surfactin-degrading mixed cultures. Finally, one strain of Pseudomonas putida was isolated as a surfactin-degrading bacterium. This strain degraded 1 g/L surfactin below a detectable level within 14 days, and C surfactin was degraded faster than C surfactin.

A new lipopeptide-producing strain Cytobacillus sp. R3-1 was isolated from the production water of the Daqing oilfield in China and identified based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses. The strain R3-1 is capable of simultaneously producing both of the surfactin and fengycin, the two major families of the lipopeptide biosurfactant.

Background: The production of surfactin, an extracellular accumulating lipopeptide produced by various Bacillus species, is a well-known representative of microbial biosurfactant. However, only limited information is available on the correlation between the growth rate of the production strain, such as B. subtilis BMV9, and surfactin production.

Microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) is a cost effective and efficient method for recovering residual oil. However, the presence of wax (paraffin) in residual oil can substantially reduce the efficiency of MEOR. Therefore, microbial dewaxing is a critical process in MEOR.

A previously isolated lipopeptide biosurfactant-producing bacterium Bacillus licheniformis SCV1 was investigated for the production of the biosurfactant using wastewater from parboiled paddy rice. The biosurfactant thus produced was evaluated for its antifungal property against dermatophyte fungi Trichophyton ajelloi and Microsporum fulvum. Results revealed that the bacterial strain reduced surface tension of the media from 56.
