Popis: | The chemical and physical properties of extracellular rhamnolipid synthesized by a nonfluorescent Pseudomonas species soil isolate, identified as DYNA270, is described, along with characteristics of rhamnolipid production under varying growth conditions and substrates. The biosurfactant is determined to be an anionic, extracellular glycolipid consisting of two major components, the rhamnopyranoside β-1-3-hydroxydecanoyl-3-hydroxydecanoic acid (GU-6) and rhamnopyranosyl β→β2-rhamnopyranoside-β1-3-hydroxydecanoyl-3-hydroxydecanoic acid (GL-2), of molecular weight 504 and 649 daltons, respectively. These glycolipids are produced in a stoichiometric ratio of 1:3, respectively. The purified rhamnolipid mixture exhibits a critical micelle concentration of 20 mg/L, minimum surface (air/water interface) tension of 22 mN/m, and minimum interfacial tension values of 0.005 mN/m (against hexane). The pH optimum, critical micelle concentration, and effective alkane carbon number were established for Pseudomonas species DYNA270 and compared to those of rhamnolipid produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PG201. Significant differences are documented in the physical properties of extracellular rhamnolipids derived from these two microorganisms. The surface properties of this rhamnolipid are unique in that ultra-low surface and interfacial tension values are present in both purified rhamnolipid and culture broth containing the rhamnolipid complex (GU6 and GL2). We are not aware of prior studies reporting surface activity values this low for rhamnolipids. An exception is noted for an extracellular trehalose glycolipid produced by Rhodococcus species H13-A, which measured 0.00005 mN/m in the presence of the co-agent pentanol (Singer et al. 1990). Similar CMC values of 20 mg/L have been reported for rhamnolipids, a few being recorded as 5–10 mg/L for Pseudomonas species DSM2874 (Lang et al. 1984). |
