Description 1365-1370
Comamonas sp. CBJ1 isolated from oil-contaminated soil was evaluated for bioemulsifier production in phosphate buffered mineral salt medium with different carbon substrates, viz. coconut oil, sesame oil and n-hexadecane. Bioemulsifier production in culture broth was assessed using emulsification assay and surface tension analysis. Highest emulsification activity was observed on day 1 in case of coconut oil supplemented broth while in case of sesame oil and n-hexadecane supplemented medium the highest emulsification activity was observed on 2nd and 5th day, respectively. Bioemulsifier produced with coconut oil supplemented medium found effective in emulsification with other substrates. The yield of bioemulsifier produced by Comamonas sp. CBJ1 was more in medium supplemented with coconut oil (1.6 g/L) than that of in sesame oil (1.0g/L) and n-hexadecane (0.31g/L).
