Morphological and Biochemical Characterization of Bio-surfactants Producing Bacteria from Diesel Contaminated Soil
Two soil bacteria designated as S1 and S2 were isolated from diesel-contaminated soil in Covenant University, Nigeria.
Characterization (morphologically and biochemically) and comparison of the isolates with standard reference suggests they
were Bacillus (S1) and Pseudomonas (S2) species. These bacterial species were screened for biosurfactant production
potentials using: drop collapse test,...
