Biosurfactants are biologically secreted amphiphiles of great use in many industrial sectors.
They are a promising replacement for chemical surfactants as they are biodegradable,
biocompatible, less or nontoxic, ecofriendly, activity-specific, and stable under harsh
conditions. However, industrial production is still challenging due to producing organisms
having less or limited efficacy, high cost of the fermentation medium, as well as downstream
processing and limited knowledge of gene manipulation techniques for overproduction of …
