Biosurfactants production by yeasts using soybean oil and glycerol as low cost substrate

Abstract: Biosurfactants are bioactive agents that can be produced by many different microorganisms. Among those, special attention is given to yeasts, since they can produce many types of biosurfactants in large scale, using several kinds of substrates, justifying its use for industrial production of those products. For this production to be economically viable, the use of residual carbon sources is recommended. The present study isolated yeasts from soil contaminated with petroleum oil hydrocarbons and assessed their … Show more

“…After 24 h culture time, the surface tension was mostly constant at 30 mN/m. The result was agreed with P. aeruginosa MA01 [17] and Candida albicans [18]. Also, Rufino et al [19] reported that C. lipolytica UCP0988 produced rufisan biosurfactant during exponential growth phase.…”

“…New prospects for industrial production are focused on biotechnological processes that use agro-industrial wastes as substrates in formulating alternative medium in fermentation processes for producing secondary metabolites with a view to decreasing the costs of production (Accorsini et al, 2012;Antunes et al, 2013;Yasmin et al, 2016). In addition, this market shows promise to attract interest in the studies of biosurfactants that can be used as raw material in applications in the food-, agrochemical, cosmetics and pharmaceuticalindustries (Morikawa et al, 2000;Luna et al, 2009;Santos et al, 2016).…”

“…To overcome the expensive cost constraints associated with MEL's production, the use of inexpensive and waste substrates for the formulation of fermentation media has been suggested (Saharan et al, 2011). Accorsini et al (2012) used soybean oil and glycerol as low cost substrates for biosurfactant production by yeast. The use of olive oil for MEL's production has also been reported (Morita et al, 2009c).…”
