La. Sarubbo et al., COMPARATIVE-STUDY ON BIOEMULSIFIERS PRODU CED BY CANDIDA-LIPOLYTICA STRAINS, Arquivos de biologia e tecnologia, 40(3), 1997, pp. 707-720
This study was carried out to evaluate the production of bioemulsifier
s by two strains of Candida lipolytica 1055 and 1120 respectively. The
results obtained showed that strain 1055 was the best producer in med
ia supplemented with 5% of BabaCu oil and glucose 1%, used as carbon s
ource. By using these carbon sources it was possible to show that the
bioemulsifiers were produced by Candida lipolytica in the end of expon
ential growth phase and beginning of stationary growth phase as second
aries metabolites.
