Abstract
Rhamnolipids (Rhls) are biosurfactants mainly produced by the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa and which have high surface activity. The production of this surfactant is regulated by a cascade system of quorum sensing and physical-chemical environmental factors. The mutant strain P. aeruginosa LBI 2A1 has shown good results in the production of RLs with an increase of 70% compared to the …
