The bacterial strain was grown in a pre-optimized mineral salt medium (MSM) containing 20%(v/v) POME, 0.2%(w/v) urea, and 5% (w/v) NaCl, at pH 7.5. Biosurfactant was produced when bacterial growth reached the end of the stationary phase to the death phase, around 96 h. In order to verify that the biosurfactant produced by P. stutzeri BK-AB12 was a rhamnolipid, a qualitative test on blue agar medium containing cethyltryacetyl bromide-methylene blue was performed. Characterization of the physicochemical properties of the purified biosurfactant revealed that it had its maximum emulsification index of about 71.4%, under the following conditions: pH 9, 15% (w/v) NaCl, and at 55°C. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of this biosurfactant was about 390 mg/L with a decrease in surface tension of water about 16 dynes/cm. Structural analysis using Fourier transform infrared and 1-D 1 H NMR reaffirmed that the biosurfactant spectrum profile was similar to rhamnolipids. Further structural analysis using high-resolution mass spectrophotometry successfully identified several new structures of rhamnolipids produced by P. stutzeri BK−AB12. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Environ Prog, 38:e13007, 2019.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]American Institute of Chemical Engineers,Bio surfactant,Critical micelle concentration (cmc),Fourier transform infra reds,Physicochemical property,POME,Pseudomonas stutzeri,Rhamnolipids[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]biosurfactant,POME,Pseudomonas stutzeri BK-AB12,rhamnolipid[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]The material for this research was fully supported by Ministry of Technology Research and Higher Education, Indonesia.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1002/ep.13007[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
