Common bio surfactants

Bio surfactants are metabolites with certain surface activity, such as glycolipids, polysaccharides, lipopeptides or neutral lipid derivatives, which are secreted by microorganisms under certain conditions.

One:Sophorolipid (sophorolipid) is produced by the Candida yeast sugar and vegetable oil as a carbon source, undercertain conditions of the fermentation process of microbial secondary metabolites. It has the common properties of conventional surfactants such as solubilization, emulsification, wetting, foaming, dispersing and reducing surface tension, and also has non-toxic, 100% biodegradable, resistant, resistant to high salt and adapts to PH Wide range and friendly to the environment.

Two:Rhamnolipid is a kind of biologically metabolites produced by Pseudomonas (Pseudomonas), which is mainly obtained by fermentation process with vegetable oil as carbon source. Rhamnolipid is also a high performance biosurfactant, which is one of the longest and most popular biosurfactants in the field of scientific research.
