Marine Surfactants: A Review
Journal Title: Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
This review highlights the biosurfactants from micro- organisms of marine origin, which are capable of producing potential surfactants of industrial and biological applications, there are so many applications of marine biosurfactants in the pharmaceutical industry as well so it can be used as renewable source in the future for obtaining the biosurfactants and bioemulsifiers from marine micro-organisms. Different class of biosurfactants helps to assess the influence of molecular weight on the properties of marine biosurfactants.
