Emulsification index of hexane (a) and toluene (b) solvents under standard conditions or extremes of temperature and water activity of the crude bioemulsifiers produced after bacterial growth in mMSM with 1%_w/v glucose as major carbon source. Each bar represents the mean of three replicates of EI₂₄ (%). Error bars illustrate experimental errors (± SD) calculated from three independent experiments
