Rhamnolipid is the main group of biosurfactants predominantly produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a ubiquitous and opportunistic pathogen, which limits its large-scale exploitation. Thus, cost-effective rhamnolipid production from a newly isolated nonpathogenic Enterobacter sp. UJS-RC was investigated. The highest rhamnolipid production (4.4 ± 0.2 g/L) was achieved in a medium constituting agroindustrial wastes (sugarcane molasses and corn steep liquor) as substrates. Rhamnolipid exhibited reduced surface tension to 72-28 mN/m with an emulsification index of 75%. The structural analyses demonstrated the presence of methoxyl, carboxyl, and hydroxyl groups in rhamnolipid. Mass spectra indicated eight rhamnolipid congeners, where dirhamnolipid (m/z 650.01) was the dominant congener. Rhamnolipid inhibited biofilm formation of Staphylococcus aureus in a dose-dependent manner, supported by scanning electron microscopy disclosing the disruption of the microcolony/exopolysaccharide matrix. Rhamnolipid's ability to generate reactive oxygen species has thrown light on the mechanism through which the killing of test bacteria may occur.

ABSTRACT The potential use of parboiled rice mill effluent as a cheap substrate for the production of homopolymer and copolymer of Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) by Acinetobacter junii BP 25 was investigated for the first time. Process optimization by one factor at a time led to homopolymer polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) production of 2.64 ± 0.18 g/l with 94.28% PHB content using a two-stage batch cultivation mode. BP 25 furthermore produced polyhydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate (P3 (HB-co-HV)), with the addition of valeric acid as an additive to the substrate, yielding (2.56 ± 0.12 g/l dry biomass, 2.20 ± 0.15 g/l PHA) a copolymer content of 85.93%. Thus, rice mill effluent can be an effective and relatively low-cost alternative for the production of PHA, replacing the pure substrates. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT

Parthenium hysterophorus is considered as one of the most devastating and hazardous weed; abundantly available in several parts of the world, it is utilized as a substrate for the production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA). Bacterial strain Bacillus aerophilus , isolated from oil contaminated soil, was studied for its potential to accumulate PHA. Utilizing this cheap substrate, the highest yield of PHA content obtained was 5.4 g/l PHA with 11.92 g/l cell biomass. PHA produced was extracted using sodium hypochlorite method and the polymer synthesized was characterized as polyhydroxybutyrate (P3 (HB)) by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance analysis.
