TL;DR: The glycolipopeptide biosurfactant produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain IKW1 reduced the surface tension of fermentation broth from 71.31 to 24.62 dynes/cm at a critical micelle concentration of 20.80 mg/L and is recommended for the formulation of inexpensive pharmaceutical products that require surface-active compounds.

TL;DR: In this article, an unusual strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa readily produced a glycolipopeptide compound which reduced surface tension of fermentation broth from 71.31dnes/cm to 24.62dynes/cm at a critical micelle concentration of 20.80mg/L.

TL;DR: Bioprocess conditions namely temperature, pH, agitation and duration were comparatively modeled using statistical and artificial neural network methods to predict and optimize product yield using the matrix of a central composite rotatable design (CCRD).

TL;DR: Oil displacement, emulsifying and antimicrobial activities of the compound were relatively stable at relevant temperatures, pH and NaCl levels suggesting suitability for applications in hydrophobic compound remediation, emulsion stabilization and preservation of formulations.

TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-objective approach using desirability function generated through predictor importance and weighted coefficient methodology was adopted for optimization of Bioprocess nutritional conditions for production of glutaminase-near free L-asparaginase by Aspergillus candidus UCCM 00117 was conducted under shake flask laboratory conditions.
