Abstract

Commentary: Oil degradation and biosurfactant production by the deep sea bacterium Dietzia maris As-13-3.

Highlights

  • Surfactants or surface active agents find broad industrial applications as additives—in household detergents, cleaning products, toothpastes, paints, coatings, leather, paper, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food products, and agriculture

  • A detailed and effective study is conducted by Wang et al (2014) showing the complete pathway of the di-rhamnolipid synthesis process in the genus Dietzia isolated from extreme environments

  • In this study the authors have explored the possibility of biosurfactant production by Dietzia maris As-13-3, which was originally isolated from deep sea hydrothermal field environment of Southwest Indian Ocean (Chen and Shao, 2009)
