Biosurfactants are microbially produced surface-active biomolecules that can also be created extracellularly. They are employed in a wide range of applications due to their unique properties such as specificity, low toxicity, and relative ease of preparation. Biosurfactants have the capacity to lower interfacial surface tension and are both hydrophobic and hydrophilic in nature.
