摘要：

Twenty-three bacterial strains were isolated from oil-contaminated soil samples. Of these, 20 displayed some ability to effect oil dispersion and they were screened quantitatively for the ability to emulsify 0.5% (v/v) reference oil. One strain, identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa UG1, produced extracellular material that emulsified reference oil, hexadecane and 2-methylnaphthalene at concentrations as high as 6% (v/v) in nutrient broth. Emulsification activity increased during a 10 day incubation period at 30°C. The activity was not influenced by pH over the range 5 to 9. The emulsifying agent was precipitated by cold ethanol. The highest emulsifying activity was detected in the extracellular fraction precipitated between 30 and 50% (v/v) ethanol. A linear relationship was observed between emulsifier concentration (mg/ml) and emulsifying activity. Genetic analysis showed that the Pseudomonas aeruginosa UG1 strain did not carry extrachromosomal plasmids, suggesting that the gene(s) coding for emulsifying activity was carried on the chromosome. © 1990 Society for Industrial Microbiology.
