The Pseudomonas aeruginosa BYK-2(KCTC 18012p) produced three kinds of glycolipids on olive oil as a substrate and purified two types of major glycolipids(Rf=0.48, BS-1; Rf=0.65, BS-2) using silica gel chromatography, TLC, HPLC, etc. From the analysis of the chemical structure, the glycolipid of BS-1 was estimated as rhamnolipid($2-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl- {\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-{\beta}-hydroxyldecanoyl-{\beta}-hydroxydecanoic$ acid; M.W. 650) and BS-2 was detected as rhamnolipid methyl ester($2-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl-{\beta}-hydroxyldecanoyl-{\beta}-hydroxydecanoic$ acid methyl ester; M.W. 664) by FT-IR, FAB Mass spectrometry, $^1H-NMR$, $^{13}C$ FT-NMR, DEPT, 2D-NMR (TOCSY, RELAY, NOESY, HSQC, HMBC). In particular, It was found that a marine bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa BYK-2(KCTC 18012P) remarkably produced rhamnolipid and rhamnolipid methyl ester simultaneously.

생물계면활성제 생성균주, Pseudomonas aeruginosa F722를 이용하여 다양한 배양조건과 배지조성에서 생물계면활성제 생산성을 검토하였다. 질소원과 탄소원을 검토하기 전에는 P. aeruginosa F722의 생물계면활성제 생산량은 0.78 g/l이었다. 하지만, 질소원과 탄소원을 검토한 후에는 생물계면활성제 생산량이 2배 증가한 1.66g/l이었다. 무기질소원으로 $_NH4$Cl 또는 $NaNO_2$를 첨가하였을 때 생물계면활성제 활성에 효과적이었으며 유기질소원으로는 yeast extract 또는 tryptone을 첨가하였을 때 생물계면활성제 활성이 높았다. 이중 무기 질소원으로 0.05% $NH_4$Cl , 유기 질소원으로 0.1% yeast extract를 질소원으로 첨가하였을 때 가장 최적이었다. 탄소원으로 소수성 기질(n-alkane) 또는 친수성 기질(glucose, glycol)을 첨가하여 생물계면활성제 생산량을 조사하였는데 소수성 기질보다는 친수성 기질인 3.0% glucose를 첨가하였을 때 생물계면활성제 생산량이 높았다. 이때의 탄소원/질소원 비율은 17~20이었다. P. aeruginosa F722는 배양조건 3.0% glucose, 0.05% $NH_4$Cl, 0.1% yeast extract, $35^{\circ}C$, pH 7.0, C/N ratio 20, 5 days에서 생물계면활성제 생산량은 1.66g/l이였다. 질소원이 결핍 후 탄소원을 첨가하여 배양하였을 때가 질소원과 탄소원을 함께 첨가하여 배양했을 때보다 생물계면활성제 생산속도 및 균체 생장속도가 높았다. 최적 배양조건하에서 얻어진 배양액의 표면장력은 30mN/m이었다.

Characteristics of sophorolipid and rhamnolipid were evaluated as antifungal agents against plant pathogenic fungi. Eight percent of mycelial growth of plant pathogen (Phytophthora sp. and Pythium sp.) was inhibited by 200 mg/l of rhamnolipid or 500 mg/l of sophorolipid, and zoospore motility of Phytophthora sp. decreased by $90\%$ at 50 mg/l of rhamnolipid and $80\%$ at 100 mg/l of sophorolipid. The effective concentrations for zoospore lysis were two times higher than those of zoospore motility inhibition. The highest zoospore lysis was observed with Phytophthora capsici; $80\%$ lysis at 100 mg/I of di-rhamnolipid or lactonic sophorolipid, showing the dependency of structure on the lysis. In the pot test, the damping-off disease incidence ratio decreased to $42\%\;and\;33\%$ of control value at 2,000 mg/l sophorolipid and rhamnolipid, respectively. These results showed the potential of microbial glycolipid biosurfactants as an effective antifungal agent against damping-off plant pathogens.

A biosurfactant-producing bacterial strain was selected from diesel-contaminated soil by measuring the oil-film collapsing activity and identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa D2D2. When glucose and olive oil were used as carbon sources, 11.46 g/1 of biosurfactant was obtained. Based on TLC analysis, the biosurfactant produced from P. aeruginosa D2D2 was identified as a glycolipid, consisting of two types of biosurfactants (Type I and Type II). The purified glycolipid reduced the surface tension of the culture from 72 dyne/cm to 27 dyne/cm. The hydrophilic and hydrophobic moiety of the biosurfactant were rhamnose and ${\beta}$-hydroxydecanoic acid, as determined by FAB-MS and NMR analyses, respectively.

A tentative composition and some properties of biosurfactants, type I and type II, from Pseudomonas sp. SW1 are described. Biosurfactant type I and II are soluble in water, dichloromethane, chloroform, and a mixture of chloroform and methanol, respectively. The UV absorption spectrum of biosurfactants showed three characteristic peaks in the range of 212, 250 and 365nm, respectively. As a result of IR spectroscopy, GC/MS analysis and biochemical analysis, biosurfactant type I was a polymeric biosurfactant containing carbohydrate, lipid and protein. The carbohydrate was characterized as rhamnose. The lipid part consists of $C_{14}-C_{23}$ fatty acid when analyzed by GC/MS. The biosurfactant type II was a rhamnolipid consisting of carbohydrate and lipid.

Biosurfactant-producing bacteria, showing strong crude oil degrading activity, were isolated from the caverns of National Oil Storage Basement. From the results of biochemical and molecular biological tests, the isolate was identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens PD101. It grows well on liquid media at temperature range from $20^{\circ}C\;to\;37^{\circ}C,$ but it does not produce biosurfactant when grown at $37^{\circ}C$ or at higher temperature. The biosurfactant was stable at broad pH range from 5 to 11 and under heat treatment condition of $100^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The biosurfactant produced dark blue halo around the colony when grown on SW agar plates, which could confirm the biosurfactant as one of rhamnolipid group. The 700 bp of PCR product could be amplified from DNA of P. flurorescens PD101 by using PCR primers designed from rh1A gene of P. aeruginosa, and it showed $99\%$ of sequence homology with rh1A gene of P. aeruginosa encoding rhamnosyltransferase 1.

Biosurfactants have versatile properties and potential industrial applications. A new producer, B. subtilis TU2, was isolated from the underground oil-extraction wastewater of Shengli Oilfield, China. Preliminary flask culture showed that the titer of biosurfactant obtained from the broth of TU2 was ~1.5 g/l at 48 h (718 mg/l after purification), with a reduced surface tension of 32.5 mN/m. The critical micelle concentration was measured as 50 mg/l and the surface tension maintained stability in solution with 50 g/l NaCl and 16 g/l $CaCl_2$ after 5 days of incubation at $70^{\circ}C$. FT-IR spectra exhibited the structure information of both glycolipid and lipopeptide. MALDI-TOF-MS analyses confirmed that the biosurfactant produced by B. subtilis TU2 was a blend of glycolipid and lipopeptide, including rhamnolipid, surfactin, and fengycin. The blended biosurfactant showed 86% of oil-washing efficiency and fine emulsification activity on crude oil, suggesting its potential application in enhanced oil recovery.

BACKGROUND: Yuza seed by-product has been produced in a large amount from the agricultural farms in the southern area of Korea. It has been mostly abandoned after commercial process for the production of juice, jam and tea. The study on the reuse of the yuza seed by-product has received much attention as a bio-resource material for the production of active compound in agriculture. METHODS AND RESULTS: Insecticidal rhamnolipid-producing Pseudomonas sp. EP-3 was grown in mineral salt media with the yuza seed by-product at 2, 20, 50 and 100 g/L. The growth of EP-3 was accompanied by a increase in insecticidal activity against green peach aphid. The highest insecticidal activity was observed when EP-3 was grown in the medium containing 50 g/L of the seed sample, producing approximately 996 mg/L of rhamnolipid at 96 h. Palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid and linoleic acid were determined as the major fatty acids of the seed sample. The EP-3 cultures grown on the fatty acid mixture extracted from the seed sample showed a aphid mortality similar to that of cultures grown on the seed sample. The EP-3 cultures grown on 50 g/L of the seed sample showed aphid mortality more than 90% under greenhouse conditions. CONCLUSION: This study suggested that the yuza seed by-product may be used as a renewable material for microbial production of rhamnolipid against green peach aphid.

A new bacterial strain, was isolated from activated sludge, identified and named P. aeruginosa EMS1. The new strain produced surface-active rhamnolipids by batch cultivation in mineral salts medium with waste flying oils. The mutant strain KH7, designated P. aeruginosa EMS1, derived by random mutagenesis with N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosogoanidine treatment producing high levels of the biosurfactants was selected by an ion-pair plate assay. The mutant strain KH7 showed 4-5 times more hydrocarbon emulsification as compared to the parent when grown on waste frying oils and various hydrocarbons. Furthermore, P. aeruginosa EMS1 and mutant strain KH7 was also able to use whey as a co-substrate for growth and biosurfactant production. As results of this study, mutant strain KH7 is a very efficient biosurfactant producer, and its culture conditions are relatively inexpensive and economical. Rhamnolipid is synthesized by the rhlAB-encoded rhamnosyltransferase. To be convinced of these genes, we performed PCR based on P. aeruginosa PAO1 whole-genome database. rhl gene cluster nucleotide and amino acid sequences were compared for both parent and mutant. Comparison of nucleotide sequence of rhlAB, there were usually terminal's codons exchange.
