Aggregate-based sub-CMC Solubilization of n-Alkanes by Monorhamnolipid Biosurfactant.
Solubilization of n-decane, dodecane, tetradecane and hexadecane by monorhamnolipid biosurfactant (monoRL) at concentrations near the critical micelle concentration (CMC) was investigated. The apparent solubility of all the four alkanes increases linearly with increasing monoRL concentration either below or above CMC. The capacity of solubilization presented by the molar solubilization ratio (M...
متن کاملBiodegradability and Toxicity of Hydrocarbon Leachate from Land Treatment Units
The biodegradability of leachate from the land treatment of hydrocarboncontaminated soil was investigated in the laboratory using respirometry and toxicity test ing in combination with total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) measurements. Soil in land treatment units (LTU) had been contaminated with a diesellike hydrocarbon mixture formerly used as a diluent for crude oil at an oil field in Californ...
متن کاملA rhamnolipid biosurfactant reduces cadmium toxicity during naphthalene biodegradation.
A model cocontaminated system was developed to determine whether a metal-complexing biosurfactant, rhamnolipid, could reduce metal toxicity to allow enhanced organic biodegradation by a Burkholderia sp. isolated from soil. Rhamnolipid eliminated cadmium toxicity when added at a 10-fold greater concentration than cadmium (890 microM), reduced toxicity when added at an equimolar concentration (89...
متن کاملCorrelation study of toxicity of substituted phenols to river bacteria and their biodegradability in river water.
OBJECTIVE To study the correlation of toxicity with biodegradability (BODT) in order to promote QSBR development and understand the degradation mechanism. METHODS Toxicity of substituted phenols to river bacteria was determined by the turbidities that were measured using a spectrophotometer (UV-190) at 530 nm against a blank control. The biodegradability of substituted phenols was expressed a...
متن کاملAntibiotics and sweeteners in the aquatic environment: biodegradability, formation of phototransformation products, and in vitro toxicity.
In the present study, in vitro toxicity as well as biopersistence and photopersistence of four artificial sweeteners (acesulfame, cyclamate, saccharine, and sucralose) and five antibiotics (levofloxacin, lincomycin, linezolid, marbofloxacin, and sarafloxacin) and of their phototransformation products (PTPs) were investigated. Furthermore, antibiotic activity was evaluated after UV irradiation a...
