A Review on Biosurfactants

Biosurfactants are produced by different microorganisms like bacteria, algae, fungi on to the cell surface. They amphipathic in nature which helps them aggregate at interfaces, thereby reducing surface tension. characterized molecular weight into two i.e. low and high molecular. According biomolecule such as protein, carbohydrate moiety attached, they have distinct structures provide functions applications fields. In this present review, relationship among microorganism, biosurfactant hydrocarbon has been described various industries also explained.
