Project

Analysis of mannosyl erythritol lipid biosurfactants and screening of specific antimicrobial activities (BACTIMEL).

Complex mixtures of mannosyl erythritol lipid (MEL) biosurfactants produced via fermentation will be purified and analytically characterized by liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. The pure compounds will be screened for their activity against bacteria and fungi.
