Abstract：
In the present study the produced biosurfactant of Acinetobacter junii B6 (recently isolated from Iranian oil excavation site) were partially purified and identified by high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR). Elemental analysis of the biosurfactant by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) revealed that the biosurfactant was anionic in nature. The physiochemical properties of the lipopeptide biosurfactant were evaluated by determination of its critical micelle concentration (CMC) and hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB). The produced biosurfactant decreased the surface tension of water to 36mNm-1 with the CMC of approximately 300mg/l. Furthermore, the solubility properties of the biosurfactant (dissolved in phosphate-buffer saline solution, pH7.4) were investigated by turbidity examination, dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) inspection. It could be concluded that the biosurfactant showed the spherical-shaped vesicles at a concentration higher than its CMC and the circular dichroism (CD) spectra showed that the secondary structure of the biosurfactant vesicles is dominated by the β sheet.
