Microbial production of surfactants and their commercial potential.
JD Desai,Ibrahim M. Banat +1 more
TL;DR: Biosurfactants are more effective, selective, environmentally friendly, and stable than many synthetic surfactants, and the most promising applications are cleaning of oil-contaminated tankers, oil spill management, transportation of heavy crude oil, enhanced oil recovery, recovery of crude oil from sludge, and bioremediation of sites contaminated with hydrocarbons, heavy metals, and other pollutants.

Surface-Active Agents from Two Bacillus Species
TL;DR: It is suggested that earlier reports of biopolymers which both stabilized emulsions and lowered surface tension were actually similar aggregates of lipid and bioemulsifier.

A study on the structure-function relationship of lipopeptide biosurfactants.
TL;DR: Arthrofactin (AF) and surfactin (SF) are the most effective cyclic lipopeptide biosurfactants ever reported as mentioned in this paper, and they have shown higher activity under alkaline conditions than acidic conditions.
