Optimization and characterization of biosurfactant production by Bacillus subtilis isolates towards Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery applications

Biosurfactant production by three Bacillus subtilis strains (#309, #311 and #573) isolated from Brazilian crude oils was optimized based on different carbon and nitrogen sources. The lowest surface tension values were obtained using sucrose containing media for the three isolates. Biosurfactants pro...
