Bioemulsifiers are not biosurfactants and require different screening approaches
The terms biosurfactant and bioemulsifier have often been used interchangeably to describe surface active biomolecules. However, it is important to note that there are marked differences between them especially based on their physico-chemical properties and physiological roles. Although bioemulsifiers and biosurfactants are both amphiphilic in nature and are produced by a wide range of microorg...

متن کاملBiosurfactants and Bioemulsifiers in Accessing Hydrophobic Substrates
Biosurfactants are one of the numerous adaptations of microorganisms metabolizing hydrocarbons and broadly represent a physiological response to specific requirements encountered by the cells depending on their environment. Some bacteria have developed the ‘‘pseudosolubilization’’ strategy to gain access to poorly soluble substrates and therefore produce highly dynamic low-molecular mass biosur...
متن کاملMethods for investigating biosurfactants and bioemulsifiers: a review.
Microorganisms produce biosurfactant (BS)/bioemulsifier (BE) with wide structural and functional diversity which consequently results in the adoption of different techniques to investigate these diverse amphiphilic molecules. This review aims to compile information on different microbial screening methods, surface active products extraction procedures, and analytical terminologies used in this ...
متن کاملBiosurfactants and Bioemulsifiers Biomedical and Related Applications – Present Status and Future Potentials
Many microorganisms are able to produce a wide range of amphipathic compounds, with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic moieties present within the same molecule which allow them to exhibit surface activities at interfaces and are generally called biosurfactants or bioemulsifiers. These surface-active compounds (SAC) are mainly classified according to their mode of action, molecular weight and gen...
