Bio surfactants or surface-active/microbial surfactants refer to a heterogeneous group of surface active molecules formed by solely by microorganisms. Biosurfactants are ecofriendly and chemical free surfactants. Biosurfactants are used widely in application, including emulsification, antimicrobial actions, and household detergent. Biosurfactants are also applicable in critical environmental applications, such as an oil recovery process in the petroleum industries, food processing industries, sewage treatment and waste water treatment, and in various applications in the pharmaceutical industry. The recent growths in the bio surfactants (microbial surfactants) are attributed largely to the advancement of fast and reliable systems for selection of bio surfactants yielding microbes and assessing their potential of surfactants.

The major hindrances to the bio surfactants market include inadequate cost competitiveness and lack of awareness about the benefits of bio surfactants in developing countries of Latin America and Asia-Pacific. However the stringent environmental regulations in addition with rising consumer awareness towards the green, petroleum-free and environmental friendly products in develop countries of Western Europe and North America are some of the major drivers of the bio surfactants market. The continuously fluctuating petroleum prices and inadequate availability of raw materials for chemical bases surfactants in many regions is expected to boost the demand of bio surfactants in coming years.
