Abstract:Bioemulsifying compounds (BE) are biomolecules of high molecular weight produced by microorganisms and have as their main action the ability to emulsify and stabilize emulsions. In this context, the objective of this work was to investigate the potential of the fungus Penicillium citrinum in the production of bioemulsifier from substrates of renewable origin (milhocine and whey) and to characterize by optical microscopy the droplets of the emulsion formed. For this purpose, Penicillium citrinum was grown in sa… Show more
