The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of low concentrations of a rhamnolipid biosurfactant on the in situ biodegradation of hydrocarbon entrapped in a porous matrix. Experiments...
A microbial surfactant (biosurfactant) was investigated for its potential to enhance bioavailability and, hence, the biodegradation of octadecane. The rhamnolipid biosurfactant used in this study was...
Evidence from Liposome Encapsulation for Transport-Limited Microbial Metabolism of Solid Alkanes †
The recalcitrance of xenobiotics may be caused by an absence of transforming enzymes or by their inability to enter microbial cells. A nondestructive method for differentiating between these two...
Estrella, M R, Brusseau, M L, Maier, R S, Pepper, I L, Wierenga, P J, Miller, R M
The fate of an organic contaminant in soil depends on many factors, including sorption, biodegradation, and transport. The herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) was used as a model...
In this study, the effect of a purified rhamnolipid biosurfactant on the hydrophobicity of octadecane-degrading cells was investigated to determine whether differences in rates of octadecane...
Photolysis primes biodegradation of benzo[a]pyrene.
Miller, R M, Singer, G M, Rosen, J D, Bartha, R
14C-labeled benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) was used as a model-compound for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in order to assess the effect of photolytic pretreatment on the subsequent fate of BaP in...
A Phenanthrene Methanol (WR 33063) for Treatment of Acute Malaria
Arnold, J. D., Martin, D. C., Carson, P. E., Rieckmann, K. H., Willerson, D., Clyde, D. F., ...
WR 33063, a phenanthrene methanol, was studied in human volunteers for tolerance and toxicity. In normal volunteers, it was possible to give 4.6 g in four divided doses without adverse effect for 10...
Effect of Rhamnolipid (Biosurfactant) Structure on Solubilization and Biodegradation of n-Alkanes
A study to quantify the effect of rhamnolipid biosurfactant structure on the degradation of alkanes by a variety of Pseudomonas isolates was conducted. Two dirhamnolipids were studied, a methyl ester...
Influence of a Rhamnolipid Biosurfactant on the Transport of Bacteria through a Sandy Soil
Bai, G., Brusseau, M. L., Miller, R. M.
The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of an anionic rhamnolipid biosurfactant on the transport of bacterial cells through soil under saturated conditions. Three cell types with...
Biosurfactant-facilitated remediation of metal-contaminated soils.
Bioremediation of metal-contaminated wastestreams has been successfully demonstrated. Normally, whole cells or microbial exopolymers are used to concentrate and/or precipitate metals in the...
