Environmental applications for biosurfactants
Environmental Pollution, 2005Biosurfactants are surfactants that are produced extracellularly or as part of the cell membrane by bacteria, yeasts and fungi. Examples include Pseudomonas aeruginosa which produces rhamnolipids, Candida (formerly Torulopsis) bombicola, one of the few yeasts to produce biosurfactants, which produces high yields of sophorolipids from vegetable oils and

Microbial Biosurfactants and Biodegradation
2010Microbial biosurfactants are amphipathic molecules having typical molecular weights of 500-1500 Da, made up of peptides, saccharides or lipids or their combinations. In biodegradation processes they mediate solubilisation, mobilization and/or accession of hydrophobic substrates to microbes.

Many different types of biosurfactants are synthesized by microorganisms. As the structures and properties are elucidated, yields increased and costs of recovery from the fermentation media reduced, biosurfactants will become important industrial chemicals.
