This comprehensive and critical review explores the synthesis and applications of
carbohydrate‐based surfactants within the biorefinery concept, focusing on biobased sugar …

Glycolipids are microbial surface-active molecules that are composed of a carbohydrate unit
linked to a single or multiple fatty acid (s). They are receiving increased research interest …

Biosurfactants have garnered increased attention lately due to their superiority of their
properties over fossil-derived counterparts. While the cost of production remains a significant …

This work reviews the use of carbohydrates and their derivatives as renewable raw materials
in the production of surfactants. Methods to attain state‐of‐the‐art carbohydrate‐derived …

Carbohydrate-based surfactants are amphiphilic compounds containing hydrophilic
moieties linked to hydrophobic aglycones. More specifically, carbohydrate esters are …

Home and personal care industry is currently witnessing a growing demand for sustainable
and eco-friendly alternatives to synthetic surfactants. This increase is fueled by concerns …

Abstract Sugar esters (SEs), value-added products derived from inexpensive renewable
feedstocks (sugars and fatty acids), are biobased and biocompatible surfactants employed …

Fatty acyl groups from oilseeds (eg, palm, palm kernel and coconut, other oils, and algae),
animal fats, and their derivatives (eg, fatty alcohols and amines); carbohydrates, proteins …

• This article describes how recent advances in synthetic production make it possible to
produce low-cost, high-purity rhamnolipids whose chemical properties can be tailored for …

The terms discussed in this review—biosurfactants (BSs) and bioemulsifiers (BEs)—
describe surface-active molecules of microbial origin which are popular chemical entities for …
