Optimization of process conditions for extraction of biosurfactant

Biosurfactants are applied in many areas such as medical, food, industrial cleaning, bioremediation, personal care, and many more. However, its production involves high cost compared to synthetic surfactant,thus, the selection of raw material is critical in order to reduce the overall cost. In this...
