Screening of Microorganism from Rhizosoheric Soil for Biosurfactant Production using Cheap Raw Material
Sneha S. Paraskar, Swati N. Zodpe
Abstract: Biosurfactants or surface active compounds are produced by microorganisms. These molecule reduced surface tension both aqueous solutions and hydrocarbon mixtures. In this study isolation and identification of biosurfactant producing bacteria were assessed. The samples were collected from different rhizospheric soil & 15 strains were isolated. To confirm the ability of isolates in biosurfactant production, were tested by Erythrocyte Haemolysis Method and Phenol Sulphuric Acid Method, & Analytical Method i. e. Emulsification Index and Oil Displacement Area. In the present study we produced biosurfactant from different cheap raw materials i. e. Whey, Sewage & Tea Waste. The Antibiotic sensitivity/ resistance pattern is cheaked & the Antimicrobial activity of produced biosurfactant against Oral floral pathogen was studied
