Abstract
Biosurfactants prevent agglomeration of nanoparticles by reducing the surface tension and offer stability over time by forming a stable layer on the surface of nanoparticles. The current study focuses on the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (SNP) coated with a rhamnolipid biosurfactant (BS) and its use as an additive in fabric cleaning detergent. Rhamnolipids were extracted from a Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain, Pa84, that was isolated from a halophilic environment, Sambhar Salt Lake, Rajasthan, India. The reduction of silver ions was achieved by the rhamnolipid-coated SNP (BS-SNP). BS, SNP, and BS-SNP demonstrated antibacterial efficacy against a variety of microorganisms. Lipase, present in the crude biosurfactant, was immobilized on modified chitosan microbeads (Ch-BS-SNP) and used for washing fabrics. The conjugate was found to be effective as a laundry detergent additive. The immobilized lipase showed high relative activity ranging from 66% to 110% and performed better than free lipase or standards. Our results highlight a potential claim for a commercially viable laundry detergent additive.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Surfactants and Detergents, a journal of the American Oil Chemists’ Society (AOCS) publishes scientific contributions in the surfactants and detergents area. This includes the basic and applied science of petrochemical and oleochemical surfactants, the development and performance of surfactants in all applications, as well as the development and manufacture of detergent ingredients and their formulation into finished products.
