Surfactants are a group of amphiphilic molecules (ie, having both hydrophobic and
hydrophilic domains) that are a vital part of nearly every contemporary industrial process …

Biosurfactants comprise a wide array of amphiphilic molecules synthesized by plants,
animals, and microbes. The synthesis route dictates their molecular characteristics, leading …

The environmental impacts of the use of synthetic surfactants are discussed in this work
such as their high levels of toxicity and low biodegradability. These materials destroy aquatic …

Cosmetics and personal care items are used worldwide and administered straight to the
skin. The hazardous nature of the chemical surfactant utilized in the production of cosmetics …

The advancement of science and technology demands chemistry which is safer, smarter and
green by nature. The sustainability of science thus requires well-behaved alternates that …

Microbial biosurfactants are sustainable alternatives for synthetic counterparts, and display
high biodegradability, environmental compatibility, and high selectivity. While previous …

Biodiesel side stream waste glycerol was identified as a cheap carbon source for
rhamnolipids (RLs) production which at the same time could improve the management of …

Green dispersants are so-called “green” because they are renewable (from bio-based
sources), non-volatile (from ionic liquids), or are from naturally available solvents (vegetable …

Rhamnolipids are predominantly produced from the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas
aeruginosa, which restricts their scaled-up production and biomedical applications …

Natural rhamnolipids are potential biocontrol agents for plant protection against bacterial
and fungal diseases. In this work, we synthetized new synthetic mono-rhamnolipids (smRLs) …
