Phenanthrene degrading bacteria were isolated from the petroleum contaminated soil near an oil tank. Four of 15 strains decreased surface tension of culture broth of phenanthrene-containing minimal media. H6, one of the isolated bacteria decreased surface tension of culture broth below 33 dyne/cm during growth on glucose. H6 was identified as Bacillus subtilis and biosurfactant produced by H6 was lipopeptide. The biosurfactant was produced at 0.13 g/L in the mineral medium containing 2% glucose. Critical micelle concentration(CMC) of the biosurfactant was 52 mg/L. Foaming power was similar to Tween 80 and dispersing power was superior to Tween 80m SDS and Brij30. High thermal stability and emulsion index were also observed.

본 연구에서 분리된 phenanthrene 분해균주의 대부분이 소수성을 나타내었고, 미생물계면활성제를 생산하면서 분해하는 균주보다 phenanthrene 분해능이 높았다. 균주 H6의 경우 phenanthrene 분해시 생산되는 미생물계면활성제는 포도당을 분해할 때도 생산되면 미생물의 성장과 더불어 증가하다가 stationary phase에서 일정하게 유지되었다. H6는 Bacillus subtilis로서 분리된 미생물계면활성제는 lipopeptide이었으며 H6에서 추출한 미생물계면활성제는 pH 2 이하에서 거의 회수되었고, 분산력이 Tween 80이나 Brij 30 등 화학계면활성제보다 높았고 열에 강한 특성을 보였다.
