Surfactin(CAT: I017782) is a powerful cyclic lipopeptide biosurfactant produced by certain strains of Bacillus subtilis. It is known for its exceptional surface-active properties, making it highly effective in reducing surface tension and emulsifying liquids. Surfactin exhibits potent antimicrobial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory activities, making it valuable in various applications, including environmental remediation, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Due to its ability to disrupt microbial membranes, Surfactin is studied for its potential in treating infections and as an adjuvant in vaccines. Additionally, its biodegradability and low toxicity make it an attractive alternative to synthetic surfactants in industrial and environmental contexts.
