Harnessing microbial biosurfactant for agricultural applications
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
Biosurfactant refers to surface-acting substances that can enhance surface-surface interactions by generating micelles that are derived from natural sources including plants, microorganisms, and animals. Biosurfactants are a structurally diverse group of secondary metabolites with lots of potential to serve mankind. The structural and compositional diversity of biosurfactants is unambiguously substrate-dependent. Microbial surfactants are environment-friendly alternatives to synthetic surfactants. Biosurfactants are surface-active agents produced by microorganisms that have higher efficiency and stability, lower toxicity and higher biocompatibility and biodegradability than chemical surfactants. The differences between biosurfactant production can be attributed to the different compositions of the hydrolyzates.
