Evaluation of the production of bio-products by the thermophilic bacterium Rhodothermus marinus
In this study the thermophilic marine bacterium Rhodothermus marinus DSM 16675 was exploited for the production of biosurfactants. Different strategies employing batch, or a combination of batch and fed-batch cultivations were investigated. These cultivations were performed both on complex and defined media. The extracted crude biosurfactants were then analyzed with different methods such as FTIR,
