| Abstract : Lipopeptides, derived from microorganisms, are promising surface-active compounds known as biosurfactants. However, the high production costs of biosurfactants, associated with expensive culture media and purification processes, limit widespread industrial application. To enhance the sustainability of biosurfactant production, researchers have explored cost-effective substrates. In this study, crude glycerol was evaluated as a promising and economical carbon source in viscosinamide production by Pseudomonas fluorescens DR54. Optimization studies using the Box - Behnken design and response surface methodology were performed. Optimal conditions for viscosinamide production including glycerol 70.8 g/L, leucine 2.7 g/L, phosphate 3.7 g/L, and urea 9.3 g/L were identified. Yield of viscosinamide production, performed under optimal conditions, reached 7.18 +/- 0.17 g/L. Preliminary characterization of viscosinamide involved the measurement of surface tension. The critical micelle concentration of lipopeptide was determined to be 5 mg/L. Furthermore, the interactions between the viscosinamide and lipase from Candida rugosa (CRL) were investigated by evaluating the impact of viscosinamide on lipase activity and measuring circular dichroism. It was observed that the alpha-helicity of CRL increases with increasing viscosinamide concentration, while the random coil structure decreases. |
