The goal of present study is to evaluate the potential of soil washing for removing metal contaminants from a contaminated soil. Remediation of a soil contaminated with copper, cadmium and phenol were performed by a soil washing using a biosurfactant. The removal of copper, cadmium and phenol from soil (sandy, kaoline, mixed one) was evaluated as a function of biosurfactant (wt %) concentration in the batch process. The results showed that overall rejection coefficient for copper, cadmium and phenol were grater than 50 %, 25 %, respectively.

A biosurfactant-producing bacterial strain was selected from oil-contaminated soil because of its ability to degrade crude oil and tributyrin $(C_{4:0})$. The strain was identified as Bacillus subtilis A8-8 based on its morphological, biochemical, and physiological characteristics. When B. subtilis A8-8 was grown with crude oil as the sole carbon source, the biosurfactant from the strain emulsified crude oil, vegetable oil, and hydrocarbons. Soybean oil was the optimum substrate for the emulsifying activity and emulsion stability of the biosurfactant, both of which were superior to those of several commercially available surfactants. The biosurfactant was purified by a procedure including HCl precipitation, methanol treatment, and silica-gel chromatography. The partially purified biosurfactant was analyzed by TLC (thin-layer chromatography), SDS-PAGE, and HPLC and it reduced the surface tension of water from 72 mN/m to 26 mN/m at a concentration of 30 mg/l. Therefore, the purified lipopeptide biosurfactant has strong properties as an emulsifying agent and acts as an emulsion-stabilizing agent.

대전일원의 유류오염 지역의 토양으로부터 원유를 단일 탄소원으로 이용하는 총 322균주를 순수분리 하였고, 이중 생물 계면활성제(biosurfactant) 생성능이 가장 우수한 한 균주를 최종 선별하여 형태 및 생리 생화학적 특성을 조사하고 16S rRNA 염기서열을 분석을 통하여 동정한 결과 Pseudomonas sp.로 확인되어 Pseudomonas sp. G314라 명명하였다. 최종 선별된 Pseudomonas sp. G314는 암피실린, 클로람페니콜, 스펙티노마이신, 스트렙토마이신 등의 항생제와 Li, Cr, Mn 등의 중금속에 대해 강한 내성을 갖고 있었고, 최적 온도와 pH는 각각 $30^{\circ}C$와 pH 7.0으로 확인되었다. Pseudomonas sp. G314가 생성하는 생물 계면활성제의 초기 표면장력은 72 dyne/cm이었으나, 배양 7시간 후 부터는 표면장력이 최대 25 dyne/cm까지 감소되었다. Pseudomonas sp. G3l4가 생산하는 생물 계면활성제를 회수하고 농축하기 위해, 산 침전 후에 유기용매로 배양액을 추출하고 이를 감압농축하여 얻은 시료를 crude biosurfactant로 사용하여 CMC (critical micelle concentration)간을 측정한 결과 20 mg/L로 확인되었다.

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 biosurfactant produced by Tsukamurella sp. 26A was purified by procedures including acid precipitation, ethylacetate extraction, and adsorption chromatography. The purified biosurfactant reduced the surface tension of water from 72 mN/m to 30 mN/m at a concentration of 250 mg/l, whereas the minimum interfacial tension against n-hexadecane was lowered to 1.5 mN/m at a concentration of 40 mg/i. The compound stabilized oil-in-water emulsions with a variety of commercial oils and had strong emulsification and stabilization activities when compared to those of commercial emulsifiers and stabilizers. Surface tension was stable over a broad range of pH (2-12) and temperature ($100^{\circ}C$, 3h). The biosurfactant was identified as glycolipid having a hydrophilic moiety of trehalose.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa EMS1, isolated from activated sludge, was able to grow an produce a biosurfactant on 4.5 % soybean oil, used as the source of energy and carbon. Pseudomonas aeruginosa EMS1 was cultivated at 3$0^{\circ}C$ in a reciprocal shaking incubator, and the highest biosurfactant production was observed after 3 days. Furthermore, Pseudomonas aeruginosa EMS1 was also able to use whey as a co-substrate for biosurfactant production and growth

Biosurfactants produced by Pseudomonas aeroginosa KK-7 were purified and their properties were studied. The bacterial surfactant was seperated into two sorts of biosufactants (Type I, 11) by silica gel column chromatograpgy. On the basis of physiochemical analysis, Type I was found to be mixture of two glycolipids with M.W. 800, and Type II was peptide with M.W. 1300. The Type 11 biosurfactant was compose of glutamic acid, proline, glycine, leucine, histidine. The crude extract was used to dertermine some properties as a surfactant. The biosurfactant had the properties as stronger emulsification agent and a stronger stabilizing agent emulsion than any other surfactants tested.

Rescently we are interested in the biosurfactant. Biosurfactant have a low toxcity and easily biodegradable compound. Pseudomonas sp. 13 was isolated from soil. This microorganism produced biosurfactant that consists of glycolipid R-1 and R-2. A time course study of fermentation indicated that the appearance of glycolipid in the fermentation broth the commencement of the stationary phase with the respect to biomass. The effect of variation of the media components such as amount of glucose, nitrogen, phosphate and metal ions has been investigated. The following values found to be optimum for biosurfactant production (glucose, $20g/{\ell}$; carbon to nitrogen ratio, 40; carbon to phosphate, 18; $FeSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O\;20mg/{\ell}$).

Biosurfactant has antibiological activities. Due to its low toxicity, biosurfactant can be applied to human health care products. Posseing the antibiological activities as well as the surfactant properties implies that biosurfactant can be widely used in the cosmetic industry. In this presentation, applications of biosurfactant have been reviewed including the antimicrobial activities of sophorolipid. Sophorolipid, a biosurfactant produced from Candida bombicola ATCC 22214, showed antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus xylosus, Streptococcus mutans, and Propionibacterium acne at 4, 1, 1, 0.5 ppm as MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration). Also 100 ppm of sophorolipid inhibited 50% of cell growth of plant pathogenic fungus, B. cinera. However, sophorolipid showed no effect on the Escherichia coli., indicating its selective antimicrobial activity depending on the cell wall structure. Treatment of B. subtilis with sophorolipid increased the leakage of intracellular enzyme, malate dehydrogenase, indicating the possible interaction of sophorolipid with cellular membrane. Between lactone-type and acid-type sophorolipid, the former showed higher antimicrobial activity.

Genomic information of biotechnologically and industrially important microorganisms provides the basis for understanding their metabolic potential. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of the Neodothiora populina-like yeast strain JAF-11 capable of producing biosurfactant myo-inositol lipids. The draft genome contained genes associated with secondary metabolite biosynthesis, including transport and metabolism of lipids, which are a major component of fungal surfactants. Identification of myo-inositol and acyl chain synthesis genes in the draft genome corresponded to the specific biosurfactant produced by strain JAF-11. Further experimental studies could help to elucidate the genes responsible for the production of biosurfactant by strain JAF-11.
