Kinetics of biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain BS2 from industrial wastes

SummaryBatch kinetic studies were carried out on rhamnolipid biosurfactant production from synthetic medium, industrial wastes viz. distillery and whey waste as substrates. The results indicated that the specific growth rates (μ max) and specific product formation rates (V max) from both the wastes are comparatively better than the synthetic medium, revealing that both the industrial wastes (distillery and whey) can be successfully utilized as substrates for biosurfactant production.
