THE UTILIZE OF INDUSTRIAL WASTE SUBTRATE FOR RHAMNOLIPID BIOSURFACTANTS PRODUCTION AND APPLICATION POTENTIAL
Abstract
Biosurfactants are amphiphilic compounds produced by microorganisms that are capable of decreasing surface and interfacial tensions. Biosurfactants are useful in environmental technology, medicine, cosmetic, agriculture, oil industry remediation of insoluble organic pollutions in soil and marine environmental. Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces and secretes rhamnose and β-hidroksi decanoic acid containing biosurfactants called rhamnolipids. In this review, we report are microbial producers, physico-chemical structure, microbial production, applications moreover they can be produced from various substrates, mainly renewable resources such as industry waste which are economical but have not been report in detail.
