Production of sophorolipids by the yeast Candida bombicola using simple and low cost fermentative media

TLDR
In this article, low cost media based on sugarcane molasses and three different oils, viz. soybean oil, sunflower oil or olive oil, were evaluated for the production of sophorolipids (SLs) from the yeast Candida bombicola in batch shake flasks.
