The marine bacterium Alcanivorax borkumensis feeds on oil, multiplying rapidly in the wake of oil spills, and thereby accelerating the elimination of the pollution, in many cases. It does this by producing an “organic dishwashing liquid” which it uses to attach itself to oil droplets. Researchers from the Uni Bonn , RWTH, @HHU and have now discovered the mechanism by which this “organic dishwashing liquid” is synthesized. https://www.fz-juelich.de/en/news/archive/announcements/2025/bacterium-produces-201corganic-dishwashing-liquid201d-to-degrade-oil
