Abstract
Bacillus subtilis HNDF2-3 can produce a variety of lipopeptide antibiotics with lower production. To improve its lipopeptide production, three genetically engineered strains were constructed. The results of real-time PCR showed that the highest transcriptional levels of the sfp gene in F2-3sfp, F2-3comA and F2-3sfp-comA were 29.01, 6.65 and 17.50 times of the original strain, respectively, while the highest transcriptional levels of the comA gene in F2-3comA and F2-3sfp-comA were 10.44 and 4.13 times of the original strain, respectively. The results of ELISA showed that the malonyl-CoA transacylase activity of F2-3comA was the highest, reaching 18.53 IU/L at 24 h, the data was 32.74% higher than that of the original strain. The highest total lipopeptide production of F2-3sfp, F2-3comA and F2-3sfp-comA induced by IPTG at optimal concentration were 33.51, 46.05 and 38.96% higher than that of the original strain, respectively. The results of HPLC showed that iturin A production of F2-3sfp-comA was the highest, which was 63.16% higher than that of the original strain. This study laid the foundation for further construction of genetically engineered strains with high lipopeptide production.

Abstract
Although biosurfactants have many advantages compared to chemical surfactants, biosurfactants are still limited by problems such as low yields and high production costs. In the present study, a strain of Bacillus Cereus (GX7) isolated from an oil tank bottom sludge of Shengli Oil Field (China) was selected as a highly effective surfactant producer. The biosurfactant produced by GX7 was extracted, purified, and analyzed by TLC, FT-IR, and LC-MS/MS. The results showed that the biosurfactant was surfactin of lipopeptide surfactant. Single-factor experiments were used to optimize the fermentation process of the strain from two aspects: the composition of the fermentation medium (carbon source, nitrogen source) and the fermentation conditions (temperature, pH, inoculation amount, rotation speed, and fermentation time). The surface tension and emulsification index of the fermentation broth were used to evaluate the optimal fermentation conditions. The results showed that the best carbon and nitrogen sources were glucose and peptone, and the optimum temperature, inoculum amount, pH, rotation speed, and fermentation time were 30 ℃, 1%, 7.5, 150 rpm, and 48 h, respectively. After optimization, the surface tension and emulsification index of fermentation broth were 26.84 mN/m and 57.84%, respectively. Moreover, the results also prove that the biosurfactant produced by this strain has good stability in a wide range of temperature, pH, and salt concentration.

Abstract
The treatment of environmental pollution by employing microorganisms is a promising technology, termed bioremediation, which has several advantages over the other established conventional remediation techniques. Consequently, there is an urgent inevitability to develop pragmatic techniques for bioremediation, accompanied by the potency of detoxifying soil environments completely. The bioremediation of contaminated soils has been shown to be an alternative that could be an economically viable way to restore polluted soil. The soil environments have long been extremely polluted by a number of contaminants, like agrochemicals, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, heavy metals, emerging pollutants, etc. In order to achieve a quick remediation overcoming several difficulties the utility of biosurfactants became an excellent advancement and that is why, nowadays, the biosurfactant mediated recovery of soil is a focus of interest to the researcher of the environmental science field specifically. This review provides an outline of the present scenario of soil bioremediation by employing a microbial biosurfactant. In addition to this, a brief account of the pollutants is highlighted along with how they contaminate the soil. Finally, we address the future outlook for bioremediation technologies that can be executed with a superior efficiency to restore a polluted area, even though its practical applicability has been cultivated tremendously over the few decades.

Sci Rep 2023; 13:15457.

Abstract
Total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs), which are often found in soil, water, sediments, and air. These compounds are a type of pollutant that can have a serious negative impact on living things and human health. Soil washing method is a remediation technique used to remove contaminants from the soil. This process involves the use of water or other solvents to extract contaminants from the soil, followed by separation and disposal of the contaminated solution. This research engineered the effectiveness of soil washing method to remove TPHs from a genuine, sullied soil sample. After analyzing the physical and chemical properties of the soil, the Box-Benken Design (BBD) technique was used to optimize the variables that influence the process's effectiveness. A quadratic model was suggested based on the BBD design, correlation coefficients, and other factors. The minimum, maximum and mean removal of TPHs during the stages of the study were 63.5, 94.5 and 76.7%, respectively. The correlation between the variables was strong, as shown by the analysis of variance (ANOVA), F-value (1064.5) and P-value (0.0001), and the proposed model was highly significant. The most effective soil washing method (SWM) was obtained with pH 7.8, liquid to solid ratio 50:1, reaction time 52 min, surfactant concentration 7.9 mg kg-1, and three washings. A removal rate of 98.8% was accomplished for TPHs from the soil in this context. The kinetic results indicate that the kinetic of TPHs removal follows the first-order kinetics (R2 = 0.96). There was not a major difference in the process's efficiency based on temperature. The removal efficiency heightened from 0 to 150 rpm and then remained steady. Introducing air flow increased the rate of removal, and the combination of ultrasonic waves with the reaction environment increased the process efficiency and decreased the time for the process and the amount of times it needed to be washed. An analysis of the washed soil both physically and chemically revealed a substantial decrease in the concentration of other elements.

Abstract
Biosurfactants have significant applications in various industries, including microbial-enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). While the state-of-the-art genetic approaches can generate high-yield strains for biosurfactant production in fermenters, there remains a critical challenge in enhancing biosurfactant-producing strains for use in natural environments with minimal ecological risks. The objectives of this work are enhancing the strain's capacity for rhamnolipids production and exploring the genetic mechanisms for its improvement. In this study, we employed atmospheric and room-temperature plasma (ARTP) mutagenesis to enhance the biosynthesis of rhamnolipids in Pseudomonas sp. L01, a biosurfactant-producing strain isolated from petroleum-contaminated soil. Following ARTP treatment, we identified 13 high-yield mutants, with the highest yield of 3.45 ± 0.09 g/L, representing a 2.7-fold increase compared to the parent strain. To determine the genetic mechanisms behind the enhanced rhamnolipids biosynthesis, we sequenced the genomes of the strain L01 and five high-yield mutants. A comparative genomic analysis suggested that mutations in genes related to the synthesis of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and the transport of rhamnolipids may contribute to the improved biosynthesis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first instance of utilizing the ARTP approach to improve rhamnolipid production in Pseudomonas strains. Our study provides valuable insights into the enhancement of biosurfactant-producing strains and the regulatory mechanisms of rhamnolipids biosynthesis.

Abstract
Soil contamination is perhaps the most hazardous issue all over the world; these emerging pollutants ought to be treated to confirm the safety of our living environment. Fast industrialization and anthropogenic exercises have resulted in different ecological contamination and caused serious dangerous health effects to humans and animals. Agro wastes are exceptionally directed because of their high biodegradability. Effluents from the agro-industry are a possibly high environmental risk that requires suitable, low-cost, and extensive treatment. Soil treatment using a bioremediation method is considered an eco-accommodating and reasonable strategy for removing toxic pollutants from agricultural fields. The present review was led to survey bioremediation treatability of agro soil by microbes, decide functional consequences for microbial performance and assess potential systems to diminish over potentials. The presence of hazardous pollutants in agricultural soil and sources, and toxic health effects on humans has been addressed in this review. The present review emphasizes an outline of bioremediation for the effective removal of toxic contaminants in the agro field. In addition, factors influencing recent advancements in the bioremediation process have been discussed. The review further highlights the roles and mechanisms of micro-organisms in the bioremediation of agricultural fields.
