Screening and Identification of Biosurfactant-Producing Bactria from Crude Oil Contaminated Soil and Water in the Niger Delta Area, Nigeria

Emeanuru P. C*, Ogbulie J.N, Adieze, Ifechukwu E., Nwachukwu, I.N., Braide, Wesley

Crude oil pollution is sine qua non in oil exploration and exploitation activities. Biosurfactant increases bioavailability and help to enhance contact between the pollutants and the microorganisms and therefore facilitates uptake and degradation as well as amelioration (remediation) of hydrocarbon polluted environment. Biosurfactant is preferred t...

Molecular Characteristics, Antibiotic Sensitivity, and Substrate Specificity of Biosurfactant-Producing Bacterial Isolates from Crude Oil Spill Sites in Niger Delta: A Comprehensive Review

Emeanuru P. C*, Ogbulie J.N, Adieze I. E., Nwachukwu, I.N., Braide, Wesley, Nwosu C. J

The Niger Delta area, renowned for its biodiversity, has suffered severe environmental degradation due to crude oil spills resulting from oil exploration and exploitation activities. To address this, researchers have explored biosurfactant-producing bacteria as eco-friendly solutions for remediating polluted sites. Indigenous strains, such as Pseud...
