There has been considerable interest in the use of biosurfactants due to the diversity of
structures and the possibility of production from a variety of substrates. The potential for …

Pesticides are used indiscriminately all over the world to protect crops from pests and
pathogens. If they are used in excess, they contaminate the soil and water bodies and …

A total of 107 bacterial strains were isolated from used motor oil contaminated soil samples
from auto-repair shops. The isolates were evaluated for their biosurfactant production …

Biosurfactants are surface-active molecules that are synthesized by many microorganisms
