In the past few decades, biosurfactants have emerged as promising alternative surface-active agents to chemical surfactants due to their high biodegradability, low toxicity, multi-functionality under extreme pH and temperature conditions, long-term physicochemical stability, and their production from renewable sources. This book presents the fundamental aspects (classification, structure, genetics, and properties) of biosurfactants and how their features contribute to the global bioeconomy. Chapters from expert contributors discuss the latest screening, purification and characterization methods of new biosurfactants and biosurfactant-producing fungi and bacteria, including extremophiles. Particular attention is given to the role of biosurfactants in the formulation of sustainable agrochemicals, and their application as eco-friendly mosquitocidal agents, and biopesticides. Readers will discover a perspective on the antiviral activity of biosurfactants, in which the latest in vitro and in silico studies are discussed. Readers will also find more about the foremost therapeutic attributes of biosurfactant-mediated nanoparticles as next-generation drug delivery systems. Given its breadth, this book appeals to a wide readership, from students and academic researchers to scientists and professionals from industry, interested in the study and application of microbial surfactants. 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aAnalytical chemistry 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aEnvironmental chemistry 606 $aChemical Bioengineering 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aBioanalytical Chemistry 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aEnvironmental Chemistry 615 0$aBiotechnology. 615 0$aMicrobiology. 615 0$aAnalytical chemistry. 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aEnvironmental chemistry. 615 14$aChemical Bioengineering. 615 24$aBiotechnology. 615 24$aMicrobiology. 615 24$aBioanalytical Chemistry. 615 24$aAgriculture. 615 24$aEnvironmental Chemistry. 676 $a668.1 676 $a668.1 700 $aKumar$b Pankaj$0970621 701 $aDubey$b Ramesh Chandra$01380471 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910736003803321 996 $aMultifunctional Microbial Biosurfactants$93421904 997 $aUNINA
