Abstract
⺠The isolated marine Streptomyces species B3 was potential source for biosurfactant production. ⺠The maximum biosurfactant production was observed with sucrose and yeast extract. ⺠Biosurfactant reduced surface tension up to 29 mN/m, and the critical micelle concentration was 110 mg/l. ⺠The biosurfactant consist of 58, 33, and 8% w/w lipid, carbohydrate, and protein respectively. ⺠Biosurfactant was highly effective over wide range of temperature, pH, and salt concentration.
