Abstract: Glycolipid microbial biosurfactants, such as sophorolipids (SLs), generate high industrial interest as 100% biobased alternatives for traditional surfactants. A well‐known success story is the efficient SL producer Starmerella bombicola, which reaches titers well above 200 g/L.… read more here.
