摘要: Microbial growth on water-insoluble carbon sources such as hydrocarbons is accompanied by metabolic and structural alterations of the cell. The appearance surface-active compounds (biosurfactants) in culture medium or attached to cell boundaries often regarded a prerequisite for initial interactions with microbial Under this point view, biosurfactants produced hydrocarbon-utilizing microorganisms, their structures physico-chemical properties are reviewed. production mostly connected limitation late logarithmic stationary phase, which specific enzymes induced derepressed. Addition purified cultures resulted inhibitory well stimulatory effects growth. Therefore, more differentiated view proposed. Biosurfactants should not only be prerequisites hydrocarbon uptake, but also secondary products.
