Abstract

Bacillus subtilis JK-1 showed degradation activity against crude oil, gasoline, kerosene, and light oil, and this strain was used as a crude biosurfactant producing microorganism in this study. To optimize the culture medium for production of crude biosurfactant, the influences of various carbon, nitrogen and mineral sources were assessed. The highest biosurfactant production by B. subtilis JK-1 was observed after 96 h cultivation, containing 1.0% (w/v) soluble starch as a carbon source and 0.5% (w/v) skim milk as a nitrogen source, and carbon to nitrogen concentraion (C/N) ratio was 2.0. For the biosurfactant production 0.1% (w/v) of $KNO_3$ was the most effective mineral source. Comparison of biosurfactant production indicates that B. subtilis JK-1 produces more biosurfactant in the optimum medium established in this study than LB and TSB. Under the optimum medium, the surface tension of culture broth of B. subtilis JK-1 was decreased from 47.3 dyne/cm to 24.0 dyne/cm after cultivation of 48 h.

본 연구에서는 원유, 휘발유, 등유, 경유를 분해하면서 생물 계면활성제를 생산하는 균주인 B. subtilis JK-1을 선별하여 생물계면활성제 생산에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 생물계면활성제 생산을 위한 최적 배지를 결정하기 위해 다양한 탄소원과 질소원, 무기염류를 조사하였다. B. subtilis JK-1은 탄소원인 1.0%(w/v) soluble starch와 질소원인 0.5% (w/v) skim milk를 포함한 배지에서 96 시간 동안 배양한 결과 가장 많은 생물계면활성제를 생산하였으며, 이 때 탄소원과 질소원의 비율은 2.0이었다. 그리고 0.1% (w/v)의 $KNO_3$는 생물계면활성제 생산을 위한 최적 무기염으로 확인되었다. B. subtilis JK-1은 LB 배지와 TSB 배지보다 본 연구에서 확립한 생물계면활성제 생산 최적 배지에서 더 많은 생물계면활성제를 생산하였다. 생물계면활성제 생산 최적 배지에서 B. subtilis JK-1 배양액의 표면장력은 균주 접종 후 48시간 만에 47.3 dyne/cm에서 24.0 dyne/cm로 감소하였다.
