The potential production of rhamnolipids was demonstrated using the thermophilic eubacterium Thermus thermophilus HB8 and sunflower seed oil or oleic acid as carbon sources. Sunflower seed oil was directly hydrolyzed by secretion of lipase and became a favorable carbon source for rhamnolipids production. Rhamnolipids levels were attainted high values, comparable to those produced by Pseudomonas strains from similar sources. Rhamnolipids synthesis in oleic acid exhibited a long period of induction, while in sunflower seed oil, the synthesis is more rapid. Glucose resulted in a more protracted period of rhamnolipids production after exhaustion of each or both carbon sources. Both mono- and di-rhamnolipids were identified by thin-layer chromatography (TLC) in the total rhamnolipids extract. The molecular composition of the produced biosurfactant was evaluated by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy and LC-MS analysis. Furthermore, secretion of rhamnolipids was confirmed on agar plates. The antimicrobial activity of rhamnolipids was detected against the bacterium Micrococcus lysodeikticus using a lysoplate assay. These results demonstrate that rhamnolipids produced in these substrates can be useful in both environmental and food industry applications by using cheap oil wastes. The alternative use of this thermophilic microorganism opens a new perspective concerning the valorization of wastes containing plant oils or frying oils to reduce the cost of rhamnolipids production.
