The date palm Phoenix dactylifera has played an important role in the day-to-day life of the
people for the last 7000years. Today worldwide production, utilization and industrialization …

Our understanding of the phylogenetic diversity, metabolic capabilities, ecological roles, and
community dynamics of oil reservoir microbial communities is far from complete. The lack of …

Biosurfactant production by three Bacillus subtilis strains (# 309,# 311 and# 573) isolated
from Brazilian crude oils was optimized based on different carbon and nitrogen sources. The …

Biosurfactants are amphiphilic molecules that have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic
moieties which partition preferentially at the interfaces such as liquid/liquid, gas/liquid or …

The potential for biological treatment of an environment contaminated by complex
petrochemical contaminants was evaluated using creosote contaminated soil in ex situ bio …

In recent years that reaching oil price to its minimum amount has become a critical issue in
petroleum industry, microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR) is a main topic of interest in …

Bioleaching is an environment-friendly and economical technology to remove heavy metals
from contaminated soils. In this study, a biosurfactant-producing strain with capacity of …

This study highlights the use of low-cost agro-industrial raw material–date molasses for
fermentative production of biosurfactants. Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is the primary …

Aims: This work was conducted to identify the antifungal compounds produced by two
previously isolated Bacillus sp. strains: ARP23 and MEP218. Both strains were subjected to …

Most biosurfactants are obtained using costly culture media and purification processes,
