摘要：The role of biosurfactants in degradation of oxytetracycline (OTC), chlortetracycline (CTC) and roxithromycin (RX) during composting was firstly investigated. The study indicated that biosurfactants had a positive role in degradation of OTC, CTC and RX during composting. The addition of biosurfactants into compost could obviously enhance degradation of OTC, CTC and RX. An increase in biosurfactants resulted in an increased degradation rate of three antibiotics (OTC, CTC and RX). Particularly, degradation rate of three antibiotics by rham- noilpid treatments was higher than by alkyl polyglycosides treatments with the same dosage. Under different ecological factors such as temperature, moisture, pH, organic matter and TN, and considering seed germination rates, biosurfactants could not only improve composting efficiency and shorten composting time, but also improve compost quality.
