Abstract:Rhamnolipids are the glycolipid biosurfactant produced by different Pseudomonas species; they show antimicrobial activity and antioxidant. The findings of antimicrobial activity showed the rhamnolipid biosurfactant had an antimicrobial effect against the microorganisms at different concentrations, such as toward Bacillus cereus and Klebsiella pneumoniae, while a lower inhibitory effect toward Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The rhamnolipid biosurfactant was shown to have a lower inhibitory ef… Show more
