Produktbeschreibung

Microbial surfactants are a group of versatile amphiphilic molecules produced by microbes through green enzymatic reactions. On the basis of their molecular weight, these molecules are further grouped in two categories. Biosurfactants are one of the types that have low molecular weight in comparison to another class of microbial surfactants. Whereas another class bio-emulsifiers comprise of the high molecular weight counterparts. Microbial surfactants, because of their biodegradability and non-toxicity are far less damaging to the environment.

Continuous efforts made by scientists and researchers have explored the answers to some of the challenges associated with these molecules in terms of their high production cost, lesser yield and the high purity of products as well as hassle free easy methods of production. There is a broad range of applications for these green and sustainable Microbial Surfactants which has aided their importance in current scenarios and future prospects.
