ISOLASI DAN SELEKSI BAKTERI PENGHASIL BIOSURFAKTAN DARI SAMPEL LUMPUR MINYAK, KALIMANTAN TIMUR
Abstract: A total of six
bacteria isolated from waste of oil sludge in the area of East Kalimantan were
examined to confirm the ability in biosurfactant activity. The active compounds
from each bacteria were subjected to screening test of biosurfactant by
usingcanola oil as substratein fermentation system. The present study aims to
evaluatedthe initial potency ofbiosurfactant producing bacteria from sludge oil
in East Kalimantan. All of the isolates were confirmed as producers of
biosurfactants with diverse of emulsification activity. Strain SMF4 showed the
highest emulsification activity and oil displacement test within 9 days of
cultivation.The screening results revealed that the six strains of sludge oil
bacteria gave good values in emulsification and oil displacement activity.
