Biosurfactants in agriculture [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2013
Agricultural productivity to meet growing demands of human population is a matter of great concern for all countries. Use of green compounds to achieve the sustainable agriculture is the present necessity. This review highlights the enormous use of harsh surfactants in agricultural soil and agrochemical industries.

Environmental applications for biosurfactants

Environmental Pollution, 2005
Biosurfactants 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

Application of Biosurfactant in Petroleum

2023
As demonstrated by the invasion of Ukraine by Russia in 2022, crude oil is crucial for our society, and geopolitical instabilities, which cause uncertainties about petroleum production and distribution, have a significant impact in the price of crude oil and, consequently, in our daily life.

Emulsion Polymerization with a Biosurfactant

Langmuir, 2017
Emulsion polymerization of styrene was conducted using a biosurfactant (i.e., sodium surfactin, hereinafter called just "surfactin") having very low critical micelle concentration (CMC, 2.9 × 10-3 mmol/L) and biodegradability characteristics. The nucleation mechanism was investigated by comparing with a conventional surfactant (i.e., sodium dodecyl ...

Anti-Cancer Biosurfactants

2021
Biosurfactants produced by different types of microorganisms are amphiphilic biomolecules with active surface properties. Recently, biosurfactants have emerged as promising agents for cancer therapy since a high diversity of these molecules has shown the ability to induce cytotoxicity against many cancer cell lines, thus regulating cancer progression ...
