Description

The book "Novel Biosurfactant from Halomonas phoceae" by Mary Swarnalatha discusses the screening, isolation, characterization, and optimization of a biosurfactant produced by a moderately halophilic bacterium, Halomonas phoceae MSJCR18, obtained from fermented food. The biosurfactant has been found to possess unique properties and potential applications in various industries, such as bioremediation, oil recovery, and pharmaceuticals. The book covers the entire biosurfactant production process, including the optimization of fermentation conditions and the purification of the biosurfactant. The characterization of the biosurfactant has been done using various techniques such as Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The potential applications of the biosurfactant in different fields have also been discussed. The book presents the latest research findings on the biosurfactant production from Halomonas phoceae MSJCR18 and its various applications. It provides a comprehensive overview of the biosurfactant production process and characterization techniques, making it a valuable resource for researchers and students in the field of biotechnology, microbiology, and environmental science.
