Isolation and identification of biosurfactant-producing strains from the genus Pseudomonas aeruginosa and antibacterial effects of biosurfactant production in vitro
Message:
Abstract:
Introduction
Biosurfactants are amphiphilic biological compounds produced extracellularly or as part of the cell membranes by a variety of microorganisms. Because of their use in various industries، they are of a particular importance. The aim of this study was to identify a strain of bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas aeruginosa biosurfactant producers.
Materials And Methods
In this study، different samples of oil، water and soil contaminated with oil were prepared. Hemolytic activity، emulsification activity and measurement of surface tension were used and selected strains were identified by biochemical tests. The nature and effect of antibacterial biosurfactant was evaluated for strain selection.
Results
In this study، eighty eight bacterial strains were isolated. Twenty four strains were isolated from the isolated strains with hemolytic activity. Among which، 14 strains have emulsification activity more than 70% and at last four strains reached surface tension to be less than 40 mN/m. Selected strain based on biochemical tests was recognized as a Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The nature of biosurfactant was determined by TLC، and proved to be of glycolipid kind. Therefore، the produced biosurfactant of the selected strain had antibacterial activity against six bacterial infectious. Sensitive bacteria to the effects of biosurfactant extract of Pseudomonas aeruginosa83، was Staphylococcus aureus and the most resistant bacteria to these extract، was the Proteus mirabilis. The results of MIC، MBC showed that MIC of the extract in concentration of 63 and 125 mg/ml on Escherichia coli، Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus respectively. Also، the MBC were extract in concentration of 63 and 125mg/ml on Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus respectively. Discussion and
Conclusion
Pseudomonas aeruginosa had high potential in reducing the surface tension and biosurfactant extracted had high antibacterial effects. Therefore، it could be said that this bacterium had a great potential for applications of biotechnology and the environment.
