J Oleo Sci
. 2022 Jan;
71(1):1-13.
PMID: 35013030
Biosurfactants produced by a variety of microorganisms show attractive properties (e.g., higher surface activity and biodegradability, lower toxicity, and environmental compatibility) compared to chemically synthesized counterparts. The numerous advantages of...

Appl Microbiol Biotechnol
. 2020 Oct;
104(23):10105-10117.
PMID: 33104842
Mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs) are glycolipid biosurfactants produced by various yeasts. Mmf1, a putative transporter of MELs, is conserved in the MEL biosynthesis gene clusters of diverse MEL producers, including the...

. 2019 Apr;
68(5):493-499.
PMID: 30971645
A novel glycolipid featuring a glucosylglycerate moiety as a polar head group was synthesized in two steps from sucrose, glycerate, and N-dodecylamine. Glucosylglyceric acid was formed from sucrose and glyceric...

PMID: 29526874
We discovered that Candida floricola ZM1502 is capable of selectively producing the promising hydrophilic biosurfactants, acid-form sophorolipids (SLs), from glycerol. However, productivity was very low (approximately 3.5 g L) under...

J Oleo Sci
. 2017 Nov;
66(12):1365-1373.
PMID: 29129899
Biosurfactants (BSs) are produced in abundance from various feedstocks by diverse microorganisms, and are used in various applications. In this paper, we describe a new yeast isolate that produces glycolipid-BSs...

. 2017 May;
66(6):653-658.
PMID: 28515381
Some acetic acid bacteria produce large amounts of glyceric acid (GA) from glycerol in culture broth. However, methanol, which is a major contaminant of raw glycerol derived from the biodiesel...

PMID: 26876677
Glyceric acids (GAs) esterified with long acyl chains (> C16) exhibit antitrypsin activity (Folia Microbiol. 46, 21-23 (2001)). However, their hydrophobic nature, derived from the long acyl chains, has limited...
