This study concerns the relation between hydrocarbon biodegradation in the presence of natural surfactants and cell hydrophobicity resulting from the use of these surfactants. The relative capabilities of two bacterial strains (Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis) and two yeast strains (Candida maltosa, Yarrowia lipolytica) were investigated. The selected microorganisms were tested separately and in combination in order to achieve the optimal degrading performance. The surface cell hydrophobicity of microorganisms and the degree of hydrocarbon biodegradation were measured. The microbial adhesion to the hydrocarbon (MATH) test was used to denote the surface cell hydrophobicity of the microbial species. The results indicate the correlation between the modification of the surface cell and the degree of hydrocarbon biodegradation; however results for bacteria differ from that obtained for yeast strains. Saponins, as the surfactant, was more effective than rhamnolipides during hydrocarbon biodegradation, though the concentration of this surfactant has no significant influence on the surface cell hydrophobicity.
